I think about that one every now and then.
I used to play Lightspeed a whole lot, and always wanted to pick up Hyperspeed.
As was my way with RPGs, I eventually just hexed my way to all the components I needed in the savegame and played through the 'story' part of the game as a sort of superpower. But it was still a lot of fun. I like to give those a shot again. I may still have the Lightspeed diskettes around here somewhere.
By the way, I just picked up MoO2 from the $9.99 rack and poked at a few games. Still fun, but rather restrictive after so much Space Empires IV.
