Hey Ronny,
            Get a life would ya?  Don's post was placed there so others who
read this group and wonder what the comotion is about Burnout will be able
to check it out.  If you really wanted to get technical about it, this whole
newsgroup is spam.  I won't buy a product until I read posts about it, good,
bad or indifferent.  If it seems everyone is enjoying the game, I buy it.
This is advertising by a method known as 'word of mouth'.  If you can't deal
with Don helping someone find the product, then maybe you need to not be
reading newgroups.

Hmm, English may not be my native tongue, but was my complaint so badly
worded?

Anyway, I just accept, that Don's posting was a private service and not
commercially motivated.

Ronny it really isnt that big of a deal to me, I just think that Don
should be able to make postings such as the one that started all this if
he wants.

As long as it isnt actual commercial advertising I think it would pass
the so called "rules" of newsgroups dont you?

No real offense here, at least not like the religious outrage of some
kids
on this ng. Some get so attached to a PC game, it's funny...
