   Didn't he answer these questions before he purchased the titles he did?

Is it me, or do some post smell of piracy more than others.
In my defense, I will argue that this person should have had all these
questions worked out before he went out and spent a fortune in software.

Maybe I am paranoid, and I certainly apologize if I am wrong, but I have
a ton of reasons to believe what I do.
Heck, every PCdick I know has a pirated copy of 3D studio.
