<micks> lgp-michael, RTCW is out of stock forever more?
<lgp-michael> micks: its looking that way, I cant get new stock, but Im not sure if it will come out in a 'best of' range soon
<micks> lgp-michael, id list "platinum edition" as backordered
<lgp-michael> so im waiting before I mark it as discontinued
<micks> and they have some remnant of the original black boxes
<micks> which they sell for $10
<lgp-michael> the original black boxes, I dont want
<lgp-michael> those thigs only install via a wine-based installer I had to hack together
<micks> oh, crap :)
<lgp-michael> the other versions install cleanly
<micks> I ordered 4 boxes to give away
<lgp-michael> {:-)
<micks> the thing is, the people I want to give them to are...not too computer savvy
<micks> crap again
<micks> lgp-michael, heh, seems like I'll have to buy a couple of those installers ;)
<lgp-michael> micks: heh, Im not sure how they will cope with a modern distro, they havent been tested against black box RTCW for years
<micks> merde
<lgp-michael> they were a bit touch and go to begin with to be honest, they worked on most major distros, but...
<micks> ok, I'll have to hack my own installer or buy Zero_Dogg a box of chocolates :D
<lgp-michael> my suggestion, burn some cd's of the installed directory tree, and send them that with a simple installer with the official version
<micks> lgp-michael, good idea
<micks> hell, I wish I had my RTCW box right here with me, all this talk made me want to play it again :)
<lgp-michael> {:-)
<lgp-michael> As a first person shooter hater, I cant say I miss it {:-)
<Zero_Dogg> I can't miss it, never had it because SOMEONE didn't have enough in stock
<micks> lgp-michael, there are only two FPS that I ever really liked, RTCW and Enemy Territory
<micks> Quake 4 was fun, but nowhere near as much as RTCW
<micks> on the other hand, much more fun than Doom 3 imo
<Zero_Dogg> definetly
<micks> heh, ok, the question I just received in an email is one of the better ones:
<micks> "is it possible to pay extra money when buying a linux game to support linux gaming in general?"
<Zero_Dogg> hehe
<micks> dear xxx, no it's not, but please don't hesitate and send them to me & I promise I'll support linux gaming with all my heart, yours truly, etc.
<micks> s/them/it/
<Zero_Dogg> lol
<micks> lol

<micks> More than 3,000 surfers voted on a question from Viktor, 29, on what Mr Putin thought about the re-awakening of the Cthulhu, a fictional octopus-like creature invented by 20th century horror writer H P Lovecraft.
<PRaabjerg> Wait.. "fictional"?
<PRaabjerg> Darn.
<micks> :)
<zborgerd> WTF? :D
