Subject: 80's computer games
There are three or four games that should be mentioned on your site: I never owned them, but always wanted them. They are the business/investment games entitled "Millionaire," (A stock market simulation) "Tycoon", (the commodities market, and "Baron" (Real estate) They were published by Blue Chip Software, a subsidiary of Encyclopedia Britannica, and were evidently sophisticated enough for Wall Street Brokerage Houses to train new brokers with. They were re-released in the mid 90's as a package, but I don't remember by whom.
