Ahh, that takes me back. Not specifically Sierra adventures, but at work, at break time we would gather around the PC/AT machine (x286) that ran Castle Wolfenstein at "blindingly fast" frame rates such that you could get motion sickness if you moved too fast! After successfully moving past a tricky part, our Russian colleague would always mutter "Save situation" as a reminder. It's always stuck with me.

Thanks for the walk down "amnesia lane" ... and now back to our regularly scheduled discussion.
