I remember getting demo disks from the computer shows in the area. It was literally a bunch of tables in a warehouse looking like a large garage sale and you could buy everything from games, to software, to stolen music, to high end computers, graphics programs, and production quality paper/card stock. There was no such thing as downloading a game back then.

Seriously off the fucking tracks on this thread. Also, lack of updates is making a fun story in my head. @PrimeMotoring is probably like, where do we even start with a post?

DoS on floppy disks and no such thing as hard drives? Swapping disks back and forth, back and forth, back and forth just to get some stupid rom to load.
I think i just showed my age here?!

And you had to boot from a floppy with a config.sys file specially written to free up memory.

Oh I wasn't doggin @FT-86 SpeedFactory or saying they are the same as FA20club. Just reminding everyone that being a site vendor/sponsor does not automatically mean a vendor was pre-screened to be bullshit free. FA20club was also a forum vendor and played everybody. I'm still out about $200 bucks I probably wont see again.
"[Vendors] have to PROVE on here that they don't meet that[higher] standard."(ᵃ) -@Dave-ROR And from @FT-86 SpeedFactory 100% vendor rating of 70 I think they have proven they have met that higher standard.

So what's the status on your car @Frs300? Been away from the forum for the most part as I've lost all interest in the fa20 lol minus my for sale thread. Crazy shit about to take place in my build thread soon though.
