Looks like you're right and it IS the Kobayashi Alternative. :) It's been awhile since I attempted to play the MS-DOS version which differs slightly from the Apple version. The Apple version asks for your name, a password and what level to start at. The MS-DOS version just dumps you into the game straight away as Kirk. That's what confused me; I couldn't remember any game that started like the Apple II version. I should pay more attention to the actual story instead. Hmm.

Pretty sure there was a PC version (or MS-DOS, anyway). There was also one for the Commodores. Re that Trek game: Its full name was “Star Trek: The Kobayashi Alternative”.
