What I am about to say will amaze, maybe even shock.
I first came across H&D Deluxe on the internet for free (that was the only way I could find it), about year 2006/2007 and I saw how it advertised H&D2 so I spent about 2 years trying to find a copy of it, as I don't do anything serious online, such as banking or transactions, which I found in an Op-Shop for $5, I got it home and immediatly made an back up of it on my second hard-drive incase, as is sometimes your luck with second-hand CD-ROMs, DVD-ROMs are pretty good though, the disks pack it in the second time you try and install.
So now theres an copy of the installation in a secure place that is guaranteed by the manufacture of the hard drive to last 5-10 years.
And Jayson, you know how you have an obsesion about collection cool H&D stuff, I have one about collection good 'ol program installs, I colllected the installations of QuickBASIC 4.5, QuickBASIC 7.1, Visual Basic 1.0 For MSDOS, Visual Basic 1.0 for Windows 3.1, TurboPASCAL 1.1 for Windows 3.1, Visual C++ 1.52 with Control Development Kit 1.0 (creates .VBX controls), Visual Basic 3.0, Visual Basic 4.0 Professional, Visual Basic 6.0, Panzer Elite, Panzer Elite Action, Microsoft Flight Simulator 5.0, BAO Flight Shop for Flight Simulator 5.0, Combat Flight Simulator 1.0, Combat Flight Simulator 2.0, Combat Flight Simulator 3.0, Battle of Britian (1998 version), European Air War, B-17 Flying Fortress (Original), B-17 Flying Fortress II: The Mighty Eigth, Destroyer Command, Slilent Hunter 2, Secret Weapons of the Luftwaffe, IBM O/S 2, IBM O/S 2 Warp 4, Windows 95, Windows 98 SE (bought without CD-key, damn!), Encarter 95, Encarter 96, Encarter 97, Encarter 99, Trainz 2002, Trainz 2006, TuboCAD 10, TurboCAD 11, TurboCAD 12, TurboCAD Designer, 3DStudio Max 3.1... (Thats only the ones I can remember, I also have some Norton Antivirus versions aswell. Some bought new, some bought second-hand, and I found 3DS Max at an St. Vinnies store, lucky find that one.)
(hehehehe, who has the most computer programs, CDs and floppy disks now, LMAO).
I envy that Sabre Squadron box, hehehehehe, one obssesser to another.
Watch my personal text, it reveals how many days or how many kilobytes of code may pass before I'm seen on the forum and what I'm doing on those days; It's being as Zoolander would say "InFourMaTave in a small small way".
