Hi everybody,

I got an PD-versioin of DOOM, so I can only play the first level. Now my question:

Would somebody be so kind to post me a complete running version of this fantastic
game. I would naturally pay for it, if necessary.

It would be great, if sombody could help me.

So long,

Christoph

: 	You must order it for $40 from id Software.  Call 1-800-ID-GAMES : -- : 

In case you didn't bother to read his message, his posting address ends 
in .de, which means he's probably in Germany.  1-800 numbers cannot be
called from outside of North America, and only if the calling party allows
the call, e.g. a line can be authorized to be callable from USA or Canada 
if the company wants, otherwise you can only call it from the country of
origin, e.g. a U.S. party cannot call a Canadian 800 number and a Canadian
party cannot call a U.S. number unless the called party allows it, since
calls to 800 numbers are paid for by the called party.  

You can write to ID software, try "ord...@idsoftware.com"

[stuff deleted]

I believe Hank's post is misunderstood - the original poster, from .de
asked for "somebody be so kind to >>post<< a complete running version"
which would violate all of those ever-so-precious copyright laws. 
(insert smiley :) for humor impaired)

I was somewhat disenchanted though to see Doom on a pir8 board before
receiving my copy... c'est la vie i guess.
