    Ok, I've got 29 of them up! I couldn't find 1 and 4 weren't compatible with frotz.exe 2.54.

    I need to go back and play ZORK again. I bought Zork II first, because
    that was all they had at the time. went back later and did 1 and 3.

    I had a Commodore 64 and a weird-ass thermal printer that used fax
    paper in rolls. I did a runthrough of Zork on the printer and kept it
    around for years - I think the paper finally faded!

    Memory fades, but doing a google image search makes me think it was an
    Alphacom 81.

    Man, I love Zork. First "interactive fiction" game I really fell in love with (although not the first one I beat...)
