I am sure 1.3 is stronger than 1.2.  They are exactly the same engine except 1.3
think in opponents time.  The old Atari ran at 8 Mhz and the Psion program,
which I owned, was pre Amsterdam.  I'm 99% sure the Palm version is faster /
stronger.

I hope you're not offended but I think you may have a nostalgic view of the
programs of yesteryear!!

Regards,

Steve
