Most of you probably don't know that I'm in fact in China right now, visiting my great grand parents first time in 5 years. The trip here was great, I transfered planes in Japan, and man do they know how to advertise. Half naked chicks standing out with the product in hands. And once I got in China and started wondering around on the streets.... I noticed... HOLY CRAP, so much pirated crap! I bought the LEGAL RedHat 8.0 for 8 dollars USD, and I also bought the pirated version of Windows .Net Enterprise server 2003 (Dated to be out in May) AND I bought many programming traning CDs. So I'm VERY VERY VERY happy right now with all this ware and extremely cheap LEGAL software, if anyone wants anything give me a holler either in PM form or email at
[email protected] and I have to get off now because I'm in fact in an internet cafe :P
Have fun!

Yeah the price on HK/China is very cheap. But i dont understand how it can be so cheap, and --> legaly?. Pirates and legal doesnt fit well. I doubt it is even original disks.
Well i dont know how the law works over there but, seems to be allowed to sell those pirated(?) softwares.
But hey! Its cool anyway , much greater than paying full price.
Might i get one of your softwares? :)
Oh btw , so THATS the reason why you havent posted for a long time.

Stay safe and healthy, don't catch any disease ><''
The condition is pretty bad in HK/China, I've heard...

Oh yeah that reminds me... A friend told me that some disease was spreading / "under control" in Canada, Korea, and some other places. I dont remember if China was one of them or not. If it is, either way you're fucked when you go back to Canada. =P

If it's "under control" why does he need to be worried?

You'll notice they were in quotes. He said that they said they *think* it's under control.

They said it's under control so it won't frighten the people.

Okay Senesia, 50 dollars Canadian isn't cheap, I just saw WC3 for 20 dollars Canadian =\ REAL thing, and yes they are original disks, even the Network Services I get for RedHat 8 works :) Btw... I'll be happy to bring back any pirated/legal crap you guys want, just leave me a complete list, I don't like hunting down stuff

You would expect WC3 for that price now, since it's out for quite a long time.
It was for $50 like the first few days after it's shipped...
I used to play Megaman...Megaman X6...and didn't play Megaman Zero because I don't like the design.
@DFD:
Of course I know ^_^
