- No, it really is important for a program to be hard drive installable...
- It really is stupid of Psygnosis to hold onto this BOOT ME business...
- I bought ORK and really liked it, but I felt let down that a great
- company would make a great game and not make it easy to use. I understand
- they don't want it copyable, but a simple doc check would suffice. I like
- Psygnosis games, but I don't think someone is an ass for demanding that
- they be HD installable... This isn't 1988. This is 92, and most people
- have hard drives and want to use them. I like the games, but would like
- them more if I didn't have to go to all the hassle of booting it to play
- it!!!!!

- Besides, the format of the Psygnosis games doesn't prevent you from
- copying it anyway, (if you want to be a pirate!) because I backed up my
- ORK disks with XCopy Pro without a single glitch. I have a friend (who
- is a pirate, ARGGGG!!!) who has a copied version of Lemmings, too, so
- even that isn't safe.... Psygnosis, make it HD installable, and I bet
- you will sell 10x the number of games!!!!
