The only people I know that fits that criteria (time) is college students (who flunk :P). That said, most of them would prefer to spend their money on more important things (such as girls, booze other inanely unimportant stuffs) rather than on games. > I know theres alot who still play d2, sc .... still, alot will pay for > other net games like WoW .. :) Like I've said, they're like a drop of water into the Pacific ocean. :=) -- Steven Ung, ICQ# : 65203722, BattleNet Nick : SuperNuubie
