Sid's Original PC and Chair Still at Firaxis, PC Plays Pre-Release Civ I

[Quintillus]

PC Gamer recently had an article detailing the status of Sid's PC from developing Civ I: https://www.pcgamer.com/games/strat...has-a-whopping-16mb-of-memory-and-still-runs/

"The hard drive is nearing the end of its life," said Murray, "but if you fire it up, there's a build of Civilization 1 on there that is just before the release version of Civ, and it is playable on that machine."

I hope they've backed up the hard drive!

Hah, and they say they haven't got any Microprose game source code anymore!
