I didn't think it had spread very far. I don't know HOW far it spread, anyway, I got it on March 24th from a co-worker, who got it from another co-worker, but he doesn't remember anymore from whom. Its title line says: Pie Bill Gates, V1.59, Windows Version, Created by "The Imposter!" It's called Piegates.exe and 505792 bytes long (so much for checking). By the way, there IS a similar VCS cartridge, Holey Moley (C) 1983 by Atari. In it, you try to shoot moles. You could easily make a hack of it changing the mole image to Bill Gates' face :-) BTW, each of the five games in the Bally Journey Arcade game would probably have been good for a VCS 4k game :-)!
