I can bring my PalmVx which functions as a remote if needed.

I can bring them back as well, no problem. What I'll do is this. We'll set up
on Friday, and I'll bring out my major conponents (red station, yellow freight
station) then figure out what's missing. Then Sat morning I can bring little
things like railyard items.

Man, that brings back memories. I first got SimCity for the Amiga back in like
1991 or something. I started playing it one afternoon, and suddenly it was 1AM.
It was probably the only game I've ever really played and got really involved
in. They don't make innovative games like that anymore.
The other Amiga game I really loved was MarbleMadness. Another simple yet fun
game. The "Who"-esque soundtrack. I swear the MarbleMadness theme song from
the first level sounds like "Baba O'Riley".
Are Derek and I the only ex Amiga users? I think Dave and Chris had 64's.
