Hi Everybody,

Well well well, if it isn't Mr. "I downloaded The Mexican with
lime wire, but oh no, I don't want to download a 12 year old Amiga
game, it's illegal" ;)
You don't know what you're missing man! I mean, stuff like Rock'n'Roll
haven't been on sale for more then a decade, so I don't think rainbow
arts will mind that much

Why not just grab them off a UAE site then, 'cos if they're on B2R
it's legal :)

Really? cool, I've always wondered what the first one was like, must
go there
Anyway go on, download oldies that aren't on B2R, it's no more illegal
then downloading snes roms, or mp3's, or /movies/ for that matter ;)
PS. how the heck did you manage to get all of The Mexican? The most I
ever got was about 20megs, and the damn Gnutella client I have to use
doesn't let you resume from different sources :(
See ya :)
