Actually, I own a copy of the game, but I'm using a hacked up version
anyways.  Why?  Because 1) the hacked up version runs about 200 percent

voices every time you go to Griswold, etc.  You'd figure blizzard would
at least include commands to turn off the voices and scroll the
quest text faster ugh. Do people really read that *slooooooowly*?
