I own an N64 and thats my only consoul. I have 8 games for it while others on this list may have like 30 between 2 of their consouls. Now I'm fairly good at math and it doesnt take a rocket scientist to understand that by cutting back a few of those games and easily saving you can get an awesome computer for just 800 american dollars EASY. I personally saved for my computer and no I don't have to pay rent but neither does any other person that I know of under the age of 18 which doesnt make me pampered. Well... I don't know what type of house you come from Mat but in mine I don't have to pay for my own rent yet seeing as how I'm only 16. Bastion007@aol.com wrote: > > Lemme guess D.

How is it even possible that he could run Baulders gate on his 900 year old computer without a cd-rom drive is beyond me. maybe he stuffed the CD's somehow into his A:/ drive but maybe it was made before computer discs were invented. who knows, he may only have enough memory to start his computer and open his application for email ;) Davidxvx@aol.com wrote: > > In a message dated 8/3/99 5:19:26 PM Central Daylight Time, TreyDX@aol.com > writes: > > << I especally like it when it crashes halfway through loading.
