  I live in Spokane(pronounced SPO-Kann) Washington USA.  The two brothers
who first coded the original Myst lived 5 minutes North of us in a suburb
called Mead.  Aside from them and Matt (Hope I don't blow his last name)
Jessick who worked on AMA Superbike and the Drag Racing titles and I
'think' Warbirds before all that, we don't have any famous software type
folks up here.  Spokane is about 20 minutes from Idaho,  a couple of hours
from Canaduh(lol  just joking folks..We all know how to spell the name of
that country up North, C-eh? A-eh? N-eh? A-eh? D-eh? A-eh?) and about 5
hours from ANOTHER Foreign Country called Western Washington which is home
to a very strange type of folk who vote for Govenors after they-themselves  
have died. :)    The Myst brothers had a two story office building they
purchased with the proceeds of Myst but I've never tracked down where it
was located.  It's been years since we've seen any news of them up here.  I
have no clue where they may be located now.

  Now you all know somebody who lived a few miles from somebody.  Pretty
cool eh?  :)

Right, but the WhenU engine is ever present and WhenU can do anything they
want from that point.

You can't trust ANY spyware/adware company to do the right thing.
Absolutely not.  That's been proven time and time again.

Sorry, but Daemon-Tools is now dead to me.

I remember when the original MYST came out (it was originally a Mac-only
title).

They had something like 25 Mac Quadra's running 24 hrs/day rendering all the
graphics.

I also remember Robyn and Rand Miller were constantly on the Compuserve
forum talking to users about everything, before and after the release.

These are two very, very bright people.

MYST (the one's the Millers were involved in) are some of the best games
ever written.  IF you are a thinker!

I still use and install the last version of Daemon-Tools v3. Currently I
have 3.47, I'm not sure if it was the latest... This version is enough for
me and doesn't contain any spyware. v4.xx has indeed gone spyware.

Bsplayer (the free version) has gone that way as well. I'm not paying for a
software to play content I'm paying for.

Mediaplayer Classic seems to be a good alternative for it, though.

Let us know how you liked RBR :)

I'm glad you mentioned that about BSPlayer.  I USED to use it and was just
recently thinking about downloading the latest version.

With the astounding level of hate of Spyware and Adware, it can only be
concluded that these programmers are completely, totally out of their minds.

Cool, but one minor point, you blew the joke.
The original name of "that country up north" was CND. When asked how to
spell it, the guy said "C-eh? N-eh? D-eh?

Got it in.  You know, those gogamer.com folks are pretty darned good.
Shipped same day of order 2 day fedex for only $6.99.

This is a tough game, no doubt!

Can someone with a Black Momo tell me what your settings are in the profiler
and the game?  I'm getting wheel stiffness but no real effects.
