sounds interesting.
For me I have a friend that buys games, downloads games and gets games by other 
means.
I mostly get them for sounds, I sometimes play.
My main issue is I don't have an adaquit system to play these games well 
sertainly not a desktop to play these on without mangling the entire things.
I suppose I do now with my old half  dead laptop.
If I took all the software and data off it, maybe, just maybe I could play 
games, but there is not much space on there, and i have no 3d card.
I may have a 733 desktop at some point that with a bit of deleting and 
formatting could be used although I have to change oses from the systems and 
only have win98 well I have xp but I have to transfer keys and such to the new 
box my dad has and well I have no idea.
The box crashes every so often and I'm not sure about stability.
But if someone gave me something that I didn't have to manage, ie if I wreck 
the system it doesn't matter, then I probably would test.
In theory I could use this one but its my main box pluss the recovery disk is 
hard to use.
Unlike my old system I can't just reformat with a few keys.
