# oolite is good
if you want the original, ian bell's got every version up on his page at www.iancgbell.clara.net/
he likes the nes version, and the archimedes. i like elite plus, myself.

# terrible, isn't it?
i had to highlight all the text just now just to read through a few of the things on the site. doesn't work very well but it's better than raping my eyes the same way otherwise...

even so, it's ian bell's own site so it's all totally approved and legal versions of elite - braben doesn't appear to give a shit anymore and agreed to let bell distribute all the different versions.

on those lines, people should go and download the opengl version of elite II, which i thought blew elite away. i loved elite ii.
