Good to know, will install the latest release. I mainly use lubuntu because of better browser support and driver support (I'm cheap and buy cheap laptops which have unsupported hardware). This could be overcome if I got off my ass and

seems to be in good taste, now if it was to be a name for malware perhaps the playful Kea would be better. Upvoted for the name, from Kiwiland myself :)

Final Fight was aimed at 512K Amiga with disk drive read access. Also SNES version of Final Fight didn't have 2 player, had a smaller screen resolution and ROM access and had the original developers (CAPCOM) do the game, a big differen
