# did atlantis sink into the sea due to an excess of storage media
resting upon it's shores?

# No
it was sunk because when the mekon started taking human slaves, the humans got scared and attacked one of the Venusians space ships reactors. This set off a nuke that opened up the pillars of hercules, flooding the great plains.

I even bought the "Ultimate 64" version, expecting it to be better than XP!!!

# heh
well, normally I'd have sympathy but like well

nothing was expected to work properly and it's all drm to hell and back so screw it, xp's good enough, and unless ms gets it's act together could be the last version of windows a lot of folks use
