Oh this is cool news!!   I am glad the classics continue to find new 
life.   I remember when I first saw MULE on the Atari (loaded off a PC 
in the 80's.. that was amazing to me) and just thought the game was 
funny!   Hopefully people today will get a new blast with it.

Heck, might even be another Angry Birds for the iPhone users.  :)
