e-card CDs? This has to change... what about the people that have vertically mounted drives, or even slot-loading mechanisms?

Wait until more info is posted on Monday. People who have spoken to C&T at Goodwood have indicated that they will also be available on normal CD's. Jason

lol I see the phrase "Special Limited Edition Pack" for the cigarette card collectors! Swaps, anyone?? Malc.
If the focus is more on the packaging of the game instead of the game itself I give it little hope. Performance, content, look/feel of the sim itself will sell games, not the shape of the CD or if it comes in a leather bound case. As some had mentioned the site and content seem to be more of a vehicle to generate VC capital than it is to showcase the sim.

It was stated at Goodwood that conventional CD's would also be available. MS "Graham Triggs" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:Ut9Y8.7$[email hidden]...

The packaging ISN'T the main focus, but why not make the full effort to make the complete package as good as possible. I've listen, at Goodwood, to what they have to say and I'm really impressed - I just hope that they managed to talk to everyone they wanted about licences, seem to be going about it the right way. :O) To be honest, I don't think that these licences are going to be the be-all-and-end-all anyway ... I'm looking forward to RL - expansion packs seem like a great way to get multiple sims, but all to the quality that we expect. Cheers, Paul T

And just how do they play on a regular cdrom drive? I remeber hearing about this kind of technology many years ago but thought they would use no moving parts like a cdrom drive has.
here is a good example of a E-card CD. http://www.ischosting.com/consulting/cd-business-cards.asp On Wed, 17 Jul 2002 02:15:29 -0000, Codex <[email hidden]> wrote:
