Recently discovered near the Dead Sea Scrolls, this Computer Chronicles video dates from the Christmas shopping season of 1989. Larry didn't get a big plug, but as far as I know this is the first ever television show that mentions Leisure Suit Larry. |

Luca Caviglione created "Larry Menu, a free mini-useless application for Mac OSX that will decrease your productivity, waste CPU-time, and eat memory," exactly what all Macs need! You can learn more about it by viewing a Quicktime movie of it here, and if that's not enough, download it for free here. |

By popular demand, here's a video of Larry's "Acid

In early 2004, I was interviewed for Video Game Invasion: The History Of A Global Obsession, which aired on the Game Show Network in March, 2004. Jane Jensen and I discussed some of the original Sierra games. AGIgames.com was kind enough to let me use their nearly 4-minute excerpt from the show. Digital Video magazine did a feature article on the company behind the show, Beantown Productions. |

Before Sierra took down its Larry site, I
happen to save its Larry
7 Hints and Larry
7 Easter Eggs pages. If any link on
these pages still happens to work, it's mere
coincidence!

Looking for more (or earlier) Easter Eggs? Here are my tips for finding the Larry 7 Easter Eggs .
The best other site I know of is eEggs.com. They
list 10 LSL eggs alone, many of which contain
multiple eggs. Click
here, then enter "Leisure Suit Larry"
in their Search field.
