Infocom Bonanza!

Thanks to our reader Rob for point this out! You do not have to be a Mac user in order to enjoy the old Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy game. Some hacker has put up all of the old Infocom games as Web applets. Just point your browse that way, and you can play any of the old games (including the frustration fests known as the Zork series) for free! (Java required.) If you are one of those people who never knew the wonder of a text-based adventure game, this is your chance to taste what you missed.
