If I'm not mistaken, his new statement means that you can't run the new EQ .exe file even if you DON'T buy
Luclin unless you upgrade to Win 98. Which really sucks, since I wasn't planning to upgrade my OS for a
month or so. It's not as if I have nothing ELSE to spend money on in DECEMBER. Thanks for the advance
notice, Verant. You'd think that in a year of developing this product, they'd have noticed that Win 95
wouldn't be sufficient sometime before YESTERDAY. Idiots.

This after I spent 3 days discovering that the reason I couldn't get the LAST patch to work was because
you needed to have Internet Explorer 5.5 loaded on your machine, as your default browser. Nice of them to
forget to mention THAT, too.
