I own the game too. i have purchased all of the expansion as cd's and online download purchases as they were newly released. All of my purchases are recorded online in my billing [You must be logged in to view images.

I only bit torrented it because my current computer doesn't have a DVD/CD player built in.
This laptop doesn't have a built in DVD drive... so I just put the CD's into another one of my computers and copied the content over to a flash drive...

you are giving me too much credit lol. I didn't know the laptop wasn't coming with a dvd drive, blame HP for being stingy.

This laptop just happens to be a two in one I bought to take to class in the fall because I am unable to handwrite more than a little bit at a time... I bought the two in one purely because of its size and form factor, very thin and light weight... I can stick it in my bag and go, and my battery is lasting me like 7 or 8 hours... it's going to be nice for the fall semester.

I'm running Fedora Linux, and it just so happens to run EQ amazingly using Wine. EQ Live doesn't work, but Titanium does.

Oh noes!

For a simple $500 laptop this thing is AMAZING!

Only thing I don't like is that the hard drive sometimes makes a humming sound, I am thinking I only notice it because this thing is so silent, all I hear is that... I never hear the fans or anything... but I did the hard drive tests with GSmartcontrol, and I got test results back that I'm having no issues.

I've yet to use it as a tablet, which just involves flipping the screen over. I'm hesitant because I'm scared I'll damage the keyboard when folded back.
