Hi all,

Having recently destroyed my floppy with angband on it, I
am now suffering angband withdrawal symptoms. Since i dont have a
harddrive, it is nearly immpossible to play the regular angband that
uses 540k, it has to read from the disk too much. Does anyone out
there have the 570k version of angband? I got it from KSU but its not
there now. If you do, please email it to me or upload it to KSU.
Thank you kindly in advance.
BJA

I second the request:

My two options are currently:

---Play it from here (atheist.tamu.edu), a Mac running A/UX
that goes down more often than a two dollar whore, or
---Play it on my `PC,' a 8088 clone with no HD

The version with the smaller overlay is hell to play:
