A very small child could figure it out! Not the most intuitive CD I've ever used, but not too bad. I almost gave up; very frustrating.
Have you ever had to return your disc due to a manufacturing error?
No Yes

Not often (less than 3 hours a month). When I have some free time (3 to 12 hours a month). I would die without gaming (12 hours a month to 24/7).

It's not for me. I think I'd like online gaming, but I don't know enough about it. Online gaming is (or soon will be) the passion of my life!

You betcha! Most of the time. Rrrrr....
Would you like to be able to purchase software directly from our CD (i.e., a software store, where you could try before you buy)?
