I would prefer not to find out. Under Microsoft's guide, Nascar Racing 2003 would require 6 CD's for installation, support WMA sound only, and contain Product Activation just to piss us off. And you would have to have a Passport account to log on and race online. Larry "Dave Cook" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:eNTX9.8072$[email hidden]... Hmmm.

I wish publishers would just start using DVD's like the consoles have been for years now. Also, having more software written with Geforce 4 optimizations would be nice too. It's sad that my year and a half old PC has more power than my Xbox but there isn't a single game that properly takes advantage of it either in terms of graphics/sound or overall content. It's sort of disgusting to fire up my $200 console and slip even a crap game in and find that it looks better, sounds better, and has several more hours of gameplay than most anything I've bought for my PC.

Imagine what will happen of no one buys them. I see MS as doing more harm than good over a lot of owners. "Larry" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:2DXZ9.53853$[email hidden]...
