I'm not sure how to answer that. I think I'll wait and see how others are voting then jump on the bandwagon.

Well I googled those words and came up with nothing but word lists.

So I voted apogee because they made some great games back in the day.

Instead of looking up all those terms, I think I'll just not vote.

Duke Nukem was Apogee's biggest hit. Where were you in 1991?

EDIT: I still don't understand this thread, but it's bringing back memories.

Duke Nukem was Apogee's biggest hit. Where were you in 1991?On an Aircraft Carrier for almost a year, I think. The whole world had changed when I got back!

I read as far as "I voted for Ap", so I assume you voted for Apogee :lolflag:
