Where does a poor GPL newbie go?

Finally installed GPL on my new machine. (It ran quite poorly on my old 233mmx.) It runs like a charm on a Duron@933 with a V5, of course. Now, where do I go for setups and track guides? Also. I've only got the CD (great deal awhile back.) I'd rather like to have the full package (box and manual). Is there any online store still selling the full original retail GPL? -Tim

Look around your town.. I just picked up a second copy (to keep shrink-wrapped in the box in case of a nuclear disaster or something) for a measly $9.95 CDN. You can't beat that! Curtis <PowerPost@2000> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

GPL has been re-released in different budget packages. I just saw it in a recent DVD-size package which certainly doesn't have room for manuals. The "Sierra Originals" release, however, did have the full kit and is an unbelievable steal if you can find it... -- "Walk like a Syrian" Per Thulin Visit Jane The Hamster's web site at http://w1.541.telia.com/~u54108168/ Spamblock in operation - remove "_no" "spam_" to reply by mail.

There has been a copy available forever at a local EB in the used bin, but it is missing the box and priced, used, at $25 US. -Tim

I knew of her site, and spent time looking over it last night, and completely missed the link to the setups. >Look around - there's *tons* of stuff to enhance GPL, and you've got a >rig to take advantage of it.

uhmm... I'm implying that you can't beat the _cheapness_ of $9.95 CDN for a full boxed shrink-wrapped version of GPL. I'm sure someone out there has found a better price (however, I doubt anyone out there is selling it for less than $6.00 US), I was just making a point, that instead of looking online, you might get lucky in your own home town. Unless of course, that was two thoughts in one and I totally missed it. Either way, this message is a complete waste of bandwidth. Bad Curtis!

Bad Curtis! It was two thoughts in one. I love to grab up computer games whenever I can, and thus am always looking through the bargain racks at every store that might, possibly, have computer games. Every place in the metro area, I've looked. No GPL. -Tim
