About Rainbird (Magnetic Scrolls?), I had one of their games for Amiga, it
was called (I think) "Guild of Thieves". It was a very nice text adventure,
with pull-down pictures. I came very close to solving it, but never figured
out how to get into the bank vault. Anyway, my amiga is dead as a doornail.
It hasn't run in a couple of years, and I stick to ms-dos these days. Would
it be out of the question if someone could get me the game for MS-DOS if
it were made? Technically I suppose it is pirating, but I've been unable to
attain the ms-dos version from any stores. I still have the book, which is
neccessary to play the game. 

Did that company make any other good adventures, besides 'The Pawn'? I bought
some orc game from them, but it was pretty boring.
