      Colonization is NOT current.
      But if they still sell it you should buy it.
      If a game is not avaliable to buy in any venue, I very reluctantly support abandonware.

      However, It is illegal to download.

      Just wondering, what do you hope to find in Spain? Colonization?

        I bought a copy of it with Civ 1 several months back, in something called the Explorers pack; both were on one CD. So, it is still available.

          I saw a copy of col going for £5.
          It wasn't in a box and didn't even come with a manual or even installation instructions.
          Are we having fun yet?

              It's not as if you need the manual.
              The net has good enough guides.

                Abandonkeep

                echoing asleepathewheel's comment that http://www.Abandonkeep.com has a strong archive I was really surprised to find some great stuff for the C64, including M.U.L.E. I'm not familiar with Underdogs directly but I gather from reading various posts that they have garned enough attention to attract copyright holders and have had to trim their offerings?? It is a tough call. I DL'ed Colonization last evening and am playing it for the first time. I hardly know how to play but can already tell it is a classic.

                Hate to think these old games might be "locked away" and forgotten because companies like Infogrames don't want people to download the game for nothing yet do nothing themselves to make these great games still available. Still, DL'ing colonization was an illiegal act on my part. Sure, I never have to worry about being arrested for that but in the strict sense I broke the law. Seems like these old games could still generate a little profit for their companies. Why doesn't Infogrames offer these oldies for online and immediate purchase for just a couple of bucks? Or take 2 - 4 older games and bundle them for $10. Gamefaqs.com has all the game help most will need to play so documention isn't an issue. I think the debate will rage on for a long time...

                  Well you can download it at KAZAA (at least a friend of mine did and KAZAA is legal (more or less).
