Welcome to GOG - there's lots of older peeps here, so you'll probably feel right at home ;-)

I wish I could return to the time when I first discovered GOG. So many games, I couldn't decide what to buy first. Like a kid in a chocolate factory. :D

Don't worry Don these are MUCH easier than the old days! I still remember writing and rewriting Config.sys and batch files, assigning virtual memory and other old tricks of the trade needed to get games to run. Ah DOS I miss thee. Uh, but GoG as fun as it was, please keep your files as plug and play as they are ;)

I DON'T use the downloader Don - when you buy a game you just click on the game in your "library" and it gives you "links" you can click to download. I always go with "save as" and save it somewhere, you could just as easily run the file from there (right?). After I save the file I double click it and install just like you would any other program! No messing around like DOSBOX - install and play away!
