same here, only reinstalls occur after harddrive screwups,(twice in 7 years) and i have a ton of pirated stuff ,including the OS. XP, XP64 Win7(64). never have had a problem YET, but i also have these units isolated from the internet.am thinking of making one of these a streaming Roku2 homebase. however, if i had ever had a console, that would be one of its duties!!

same here! had thrown out my original VHS transfers (DVD) after buying the updated commercial DVDs. only to find that Han did not shoot first! Whaaaa???? luckily the laserdisc torrent was the original version, AND better than my VHS transfer to DVD.i don't think i can ever trust Lucas to do the proper thing by hardcore fans.,,,,

try this- place the individual vinyl disks between two sheets of clean glass, place in sunlight to warm them up for a while, then remove to shaded area to cool down. depending on the vinyl composition, it might restore them to desired state. cant hurt them to try. i did this 30 years ago to some albums in the same warped state and was able to recover them. of course, results may vary. good luck!

exactly!! i am all for evolution taking place. doesn't matter how old, or even what species. either learn to ALWAYS be cautious, or remove yourself from the gene pool. of course, if all vehicles eventually become super-quiet, i assume that all creatures become vigilant or roadkill!! maybe that would make some Blackberry-texting freak think twice about doing so while crossing roadways. also, please be aware of the cynical-sarcastic frame of mind i am in at present!!
