    • DESPERATE IN ENGLAND!


      I live in England.

      This may sound a very silly question!
      But some of you guys out there might be able to help me!
      I have used a Mac for ages but do not know an awful lot about technical "stuff"!!

      I have tried and tried to download the full Mac P of G game but becasue my ISP retricts me to 2 hours and does not allow immediate redial, find it impossible to do it!!
      (I have even tried Monica but that gets no where either)
      IF, I got a PC using friend with a very fast access line who used his PC to download the Mac version onto a ZIP disk and then did nothing and sent it to me, would I be able to use it?
      Or would he have to initialise the Zip to the PC first??? In which it would be no good to me?

      I do not know any fast access users of Mac or anyone with the full version myself to ask.

      So, If anyone has the CD or the full game on a Zip and would be willing to allow me to borrow it, I would pay postage etc and promise to return it to the sender!!!!

      I know the full version is on a MacAddict CD but that is not available in the UK.
      I also know it is on the iDisk but you can only stay connected to that for 30 minutes as I am still using OS9.1 and it would take 17 hours to download it!!

      I have played the demo as far as I can go and am so keen to continue playing!!!

      In other wors,I amremaining desperate in England!!!!

    • There's a copy of PoG on the cover CD of this month's MacFormat (issue 111). Failing that, getting it off the Zip should work, as the Mac usually has no problems reading a PC formatted disk.

    • Simon, thank you very very much!!!

      I have the magazine and because it was in the demo section I presumed it was the demo!!!

      I am no longer desperate!!
      I am very happy!!!!

      What a worrier I have been over this!!!!

      Tomorrow I can get stuck in now, well and truly!!!

      No longer Desperate!!!
