Your parent was unclear. While you didn't have to pay to play online, you were supposed to have a legitimate copy of the game in the first place, which Battle.net checks by verifying your CD-Key vs. their database of keys they have sold (not just the ones that pass the installers verifier..) BnetD didn't (and couldn't) do this, therefore they were shutdown (if you're still interested in bnetd, look up pvpgn, its successor...)
An anime OVA in which they send a small ark with genetic samples of earth flora and fertilized human eggs into space, it ends up that while it is on the way humanity advances space travel and ends up sending terraforming equipment that gets there before the original ship. Also, due to doing lots of space travel as soon as near-lightspeed travel became available, the original donor was able to see them shortly after they landed...
Perhaps the reason is that it works almost the exact same as setting it up for the desktop nowadays... I've set gentoo up on 3 laptops and 1 desktop in the past few years and saw no appreciable difference between them (except with midi support, where the desktop was using an emu10k1 for sound...)
The desktop was home-built, the laptops were an older toshiba satellite, a no-name laptop with an AMD 3400+ and an ATI card, and a dual-core athlon x64 4200+ (clevo d900k)...
I've had wifi working on all three of the laptops...
What they did on the 85 was modify a backup file (.85b) that was on their PC and replace the memory address of the first entry on the Recall menu to point to their ASM program rather than a BASIC app... This was done independantly in several places, but no BASIC app was AFAIK ever involved in the actual running of the ASM...
Also interesting for the 85 was a seldom used compiler someone made that took the Hex representation of an ASM instruction and converted it to machine code... fun times...
Do you live near them, or do you know them closely? No? A newspaper says she disappeared? Various articles on the internet? Sounds alleged from here...
interesting... my legit talkie version doesn't have a copy protection quiz... could be because it came packaged with a graphics card... (picked up from a garage sale w/o the card...)
I wasn't suggesting bypassing them, I've been a subscriber (off and on due to miscellaneous work related things...) since 2002... but even in their irc channel they used to have a link that would pop up fairly often to the cvs version... the main difference is that much of the copy protection stuff is not in the cvs due to copyright issues.
If you want surprise advertising, examine the packaging for the game Darkened Skye. There is absolutely no mention, at least on the package I got, that the game has any spnsors in the way of candy conglomerates... Then you play the game and it turns out that Skittles(tm) are the source of all magic...

It's also possible that it's just a correlation with their consumption of dihydrogen monoxide...

What, like in Chrono Trigger where you had to let Crono die?
Would be ironic considering that one of their other big properties people keep harping on, Starcraft, was originally based on WarHammer...
Or, if you look even closer, the selector is in the shape of a circle. They can easily divide it into more than four sections...
I've seen Cool Runnings, but I don't really see how Jamaica's bobsled team is going to help us with our crops after an apocolypse...
Macross Plus? Seems there's more than one movie that uses the idea...

Ah... that's right... it was the custom menu, not the recall menu... been too long and my brother broke my 85 years ago...

Not that I advocate doing this for every search, but sometimes I do that when unsure of the URL's spelling...
Would that even be a GPL compatible license with a restriction like that?

Just noticed that going through the scummvm forum actually...

Click Features, then the Exclusives tab at the top (they need to fix the link on the actual page...)
Or just click here

found about five of them at a garage sale about a decade back...
You can always try looking for the CVS installation script...
One Click Patent...
Of course, he could have meant a proverbial door while actually having used the local matter-fax/teleportation network...
As does The Metamorphosis of Prime Intellect
Hehe... 'car geek'... Call the next mechanic you see a car geek... I wonder how that'll go over...
