The "Origin's Software Entertainment Technology Report" link is interesting, but there is no mention of where it's taken from. The thing is, I'm currently working on the Wikipedia entry for Ultima Underworld, and there is information in that article that I desperately need for citation material. I'm nearing enough information to push the article to Featured status, with several pieces of information from these being among the finishing touches. Unfortunately, Wikipedia guidelines require that I give more information on the material used for references than a simple direct link to the images. Does anyone have
any idea where these things are from? I would be eternally grateful.

I believe that was the first time LGS (Blue Sky) publicly presented Underworld as part of the Origin Systems group at a technology or games expo... whatever form those took back then. I am not sure what year it's from... 1990? 91?
I am not an authority on that, though.

Thanks for the reply. That's helpful, but the most critical piece of information about it that I need is what exactly it was published in. It says "page 14" on one of the pages, so I'm assuming it was in a magazine or maybe a handout. If I knew what it was scanned from, I would likely have access to the document's vital statistics (date, name, publisher, writer if applicable), and I'd be in the clear. But until I find that stuff out, I'm not sure what to do.

Look for Origin Systems product catalogs or expo handouts from the years before UW1 was released.

Will do. Thanks!

I'm guessing that "Origin's Software Entertainment Technology Report" is the name of the promotional handout/magazine. :)
