Maybe that's not an accurate statement, but only a weak-minded fool would go through life without this enormous convenience because they want to "pay as they go".

"John Mitchell" wrote in message ... That was not the point. The point is that now they (ATI) want to charge us (the early buyers) for shipping and taxes - that should have been included with the card purchase. "I guess the buyers of the card after Half-Life is released will get a better deal as they won't have to pay extra shipping or taxes." -- You can download for free or pay S&H. |

I couldn't get a "print Screen" - I tried that.
You need High speed access to download the game - Is 38k dialup high speed? I can understand them not supplying it as it was out of thir controll but it is wrong to advertise it as "free" than charge $10.00 for shipping and taxes when the original advertisements were that it was to be included. I will just grab it from a warez site. -- John Mitchell "TMack" wrote in message ... "John Mitchell" wrote in message ... I just bought a new 9600XT to replace a 9600 (no great change) but there was to be a "free" copy of Half-Life 2 included. Instead they included a coupon. OK so far. I went to the site on the coupon to register and it would accept my info but wouldn't print it out or save it SNIP You could have used the 'Print Screen' to take a screendump - saves an image of the screen to windows clipboard. The results can then be pasted into a Word document or into the Windows 'Paint' program or any other application that can display image files - save the results as a file and you now have a record of the transaction.

Top posting jackass: I did leave your quote and comment.
Let's try again: HE SAID: You NEED to have a credit card to exist securely (safely) in modern society. YOU SAID: What?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have never heard a more brain washed statement in my life... I SAID: So how to you do the things mentioned without a credit card? A credit card is mandatory equipment if you do any kind of traveling and simply convenient for shopping both online and off. There's nothing "brain washed" about accepting reality and/or benefiting from the convenience of credit cards. I SAID THIS TIME: Nice job of avoiding my question (not surprised since there's no reasonable rebuttal). -- Joe M. |

I guess I should remember that at times I am conversing with kids who have not yet achieved sufficient income as to be able to pay their bills at the end of the month.

"These are the same retards who determined that people with bad credit
should pay HIGHER insurance because they may get into an accident..." Actually the insurance companies raise the rates because people with bad credit are more likely to file false claims. But I agree with you, it's rediculous thinking. And just another way to "rip" all of us off. "Darthy" wrote in message ...

It has nothing to do with "paying as you go", and you don't And if you can't get a credit card, your ****ed.... gee, what a load of crap. have to actually use it very often. But renting a car, and often getting a hotel room, is difficult to impossible without a credit card (and there's a good reason for it, expecially with car rentals). Try to pay for an airline ticket with cash and you will possibly arrested, you will "flag" the airline computers. What do you do if you are out of town in your car and it suffers a SERIOUS breakdown ? And, obviously, for mail order and internet purchases, it saves a huge amount of time and trouble. Well, thats because Corp. America is full of **** with mornic suits screwing up the country. These are the same retards who determined that people with bad credit should pay HIGHER insurance because they may get into an accident... we're talking about double the amount. Hmmm.. but it was reported that Lawyers and doctors seems to be high on the list with their SUVs and sports cars... go figure. -- Remember when real men used Real computers!? When 512K of video RAM was a lot! Death to Palladium & WPA!! |
