Nope -- the boxes could have been surplus from the printers. You need the media - end of story. (Look at what happens with Arcade emulators - you can keep copies of the ROMs, if you have the original ROMs - not if you have an arcade machine which has been stripped -- same goes for the MacOS ROMs) Simon ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com
