I have been sufficiently scared. Its not going to change my piracy, its just convinced me that all Macs are possessed by satan.

oh please, Nancy, it's Microsoft that's Satan, and Apple is our savior!! (some more Mac-evangelism, so please don't take it personally)

Like a friend said on another forum when this came up, "I wanna go out and pirate more software now".

PS: I will never again "copy a floppy" as I have not had to use such ancient technology in many years. :D

lol, miss the days when u could pirate on a floppy

Omfg...it's reminds me of old antidrug commercials......remember if you buy MS products you get a manual with it....

that was just painfully horrible

Brings back memories of those outdated movies everyone had to watch in elementary.

At the end of it, I wanted that kid to click ok so bad.

damn this is classic, i never seen it before

thats bogus!

That was so goddamn funny. Thanks.

Geeks -n- Rappas doin' it old-skool style.

I think DP ripped off the theme from Fresh Prince of Bel-Air for his rap. Just who does he think he is? George Harrison?

I was confused about the timeframe of the PSA. It has crappy music and early 90's backgrounds and shows off tetris and Oregon trail. But then they talk to the people designing NWN. I know that there was a gold-box version of Pool of Radience but I don't remember one for NWN. SO just how long was that game in development?! Or was this thing made by some guy who purposely went for the old-school, retro look even though by 1998 people had long forgotten Oregon trail and such games?

Yeah, that Neverwinter Nights part confused me too.

Dave Butler looks like Bubbles (a la TPB) :D

I now see apple's plan to make piracy obsolete! Remove floppy drives from their computers, brilliant!

I dont think it's gunna work though.

heh, NWN looks "baddass"

i prefer the one i have now ;)

bad just bad, how did they think that would work?

The NWN you are thinking of is actually the 2nd NWN. Pool of Radiance was also done twice. The one they are referencing is an old on-line only version that was available on AOL.

I can't believe I actually sat through that whole thing. The really sad part is I'm not going to get that song out of my head for at least 3 weeks. :(

BTW, did anyone else notice the political correctness propaganda in there.... the white male had to be taught an ethics lesson by the black female and rapper before he made the right decision. Suck it and swallow, you propaganist pigs.

Now if you'll excuse me, I need to go scan Kazaa for a bit...
