Blam-O! Posted February 7, 2005 Share Posted February 7, 2005 (edited) http://www.pricegrabber.com/search_attrib....=priceA&x=0&y=0LOL - What are those? Used Burned Hand-me-downs? I wouldn't trust it. You are better off downloading it via eMule v44! LOL EDIT:I have seen this kind of things before, there are many other website that offer games as low as $10.00 a CD, (MOHAA, FryCry, Half-Life2, Doom3, etc..), anyways theses "CD's" are burned ISO Copys with included "No CD Crack". It works - I suppose, but is not legal and you may experience Problems since it is non-secure.If you want the real thing go to a Fry's Electronics, or a Small Computer Owned Store, they always have OEM versions available for $89.99-Home, and 149.99-Pro.and you need to also buy a $1 cable to comply w/ the OEM terms..... or anything that is considered an internal computer accessory - I think mouse pads and a few others also qualify, just depends who you are buying from:) Edited February 7, 2005 by Blam-O!

Ge0ph Posted February 7, 2005 Share Posted February 7, 2005 Ya, those would be great if you owned a Dell and didn't care if you were leagle or not.You would be in just as much trouble using those as you would a burned copy from a friend.OEM's must be sold with hardware of some kind and those don't even have a COA.
