People still buy enough games at the old prices, there's no point in dropping
the price.  :)   Actually, $29.95 *IS* a discount form the original price of
$60.
As for updating, yes.  Our next "new" game is Balls of Steel, and the minimum
reqs for that are a Pentium 100 (preferably 133) with Windows95 and a DirectX
Compatible Sound card, and Vesa compatible video.
Prey will REQUIRE some sort of video hardware accelerator card when it comes
out.  If you go for something new *NOW*, I wouldn't go for any less than a
133Mhz.
