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.
