Just a quick reply to myself... If you buy this for the video, make damn sure the store you buy it from accepts returns for defective merchandise. I have only been able to run the video, let alone read any of the CD-Rom portion of the 2nd disc, on one machine. I've tried 3 total. I suspect it's a manufacturing problem, or possibly they're using a non-standard format that one machine happens to be able to read. (Has a Sony CD-Rom drive, so who knows). Anyways... just keep a heads up with this release... -- guyjr@cc.gatech.edu | I.D.M.- That stage in sleeping when your feet are a.k.a., Guy Elden Jr. | moving faster than your eyes.
