No worries. Huge Sci-Fi nut here and loved seeing all those ships up at one time.

Red Drawf is on the bottom left.

is the Jupiter II in there?


As a kid I always wondered what was going on when you’d see the size of the people when they entered and exited the ship versus when they got chased by monsters inside the ship. I mean, from the exterior shots my RV looks bigger. The J-II has a galley, sleeping quarters and two (2!!!) elevators!

If the thing is supposed to extend into the fifth demension why didn’t they include that in the story line?

I still have Privateer, with the language packs and custom mods that I added later backed up along with several gamesaves and custom game-patches as well. Privateer II as well, still in their original Gaming CDs and holders. Don't remember if I have those backed up yet, but I do have the installed game backed up in a few places so perhaps I will take some time out today and reorganize them.

Also Descent, Descent II, Mechwarrior II, and some version of Quake or other as well. Lots of fun games and demos, but you have to be running no later than 'doze98 to play them. They do not seem to work well under Wine and of course, XP and 2k simply abort when attempting to install them. Might try again later, though.

Other less well-known games as well, of course, but not sure where they are put away at the moment. I wonder if I still have that copy of Nude Tomb Raider that was making the rounds back then....

Not sure about the LEXX, but the Red Dwarf is near the bottom left in the graphic, I believe.

Really? Have to look again, thanks.

Yes, I've heard of Lexx, if only because I had a crush on the hot blue-haired German girl who was in it (not the actress that took over with the overinflated lips). It was soft-core Sci-Fi, actually.

Eva Habermann, here she is...

True, she was quite delectable back then, but you probably would not appreciate how she has declined over the years. Not as bad as Carrie Fischer, Marylou Henner, or even worse, Tina Louise to name just a few (the “Weird Science” usedtabe-babe -shudder!) but definitely not as good-looking. Think Aging Kevin Costner with slightly longer hair.

Of course, Eva was all of 21 when she began the role for 2 seasons. I just located her personal website, and she does look a bit haggard now, not quite the luscious angel she was then. Actually, had they not identified her, I’d not have known she was the same person.

By comparison, her successor, Xenia Seeberg looks like a duck (or like some of these 50-something+ actresses on the Soaps with massive collagen injections). I love natural full lips, but with some, it’s just ridonkulous.
