I played this game so much in the early days. Jordan Mechner may not be a name many of you know unless you are up-to-date with your video gaming history.

 He's probably better known as the creator of Prince of Persia the Apple II way back in 1989. Along the way, he managed to misplace the original source code for that first Prince of Persia game and has been searching for it ever since. Yesterday he found it, and the discovery is all thanks to his father. The three packs of 3.5" Apple ProDOS disks had been safely stored away in a brown box. The problem he faces now is how to extract the code from those old 3.5" disks. The ultimate aim is to make the source code readable on modern machines, and hopefully after that he may be kind enough to release it for us all to see.
