I figured your nickname had to come from Wing Commander... Alas, now I must hate you for having the collection I don't. ;)

Ahh, I remember when I got Wing Commander III as a kid and, before we drove to our hometown (original games were hard to come by in Poland back then, so we bought them in Warsaw), we stopped at a KFC and, rather than eating anything, I was reading the manuals, the ship specs and descriptions... Good times. :)
