Living Room / Re: How to understand all the Intel chip types?

It's not quite as user friendly as it could be, but CPU benchmark is a useful guide to CPU processing power taken, I believe, from multiple benchmarks of real systems.

It will not, however, help much beyond that - ie. no info about compatibility, power usage, CPU features etc.

Just had a fun game with Mouser and Deozaan - game is a bit rough around the edges (I managed to crash not only Worms but the Steam platform too), but I am sure Team17 will roll out the fixes.

Mouser: Count me in on the 4 pack please - if there is a copy left :)

FARR Plugins and Aliases / Re: FCalc: how to do algebra or ratios?

Don't know the answer to your original question, but it ought to be possible to use the WolframAlpha computation engine, via FARR, to answer this sort of thing.

Perhaps someone cleverer than me can put a FARR alias / plugin together?

I played Space Ace and Dragon's Lair on my Amiga 500 and although they were tough they seemed a little more forgiving  (at least in the early stages) perhaps because you only had to press a direction on the joystick (or the fire button) rather than click a specific (small) area of the screen.

That said, in the Amiga versions, there was no explicit instruction as to which direction to move - you simply had to guess based on the action and layout of the room!

A lot of trial and error was required, but the beautiful graphics made the experience worthwhile.
