It is my experience that the games possessed by the people in a school
are very similiar.  They also often reflect the tastes in games that the
person with the graphlink at that school has.  For instance, my school
still runs on ZShell (which hasn't been updated since before any other
shells on any calculator even existed).  The reason for this is because
I got an 86 and stopped distributing 85 software.
