I have now registered and have downloaded the downloader. I plan to try the actual download at work, but the thought occured to me that two gig may not fit conveniently on a CD ROM. Maybe I can figure out how to span the file with pkzip?
Has anyone downloaded on a different machine from the one they use for playing? I suppose I could always install on a machine at work, but the graphics cards are not that great.
Next, does the beta coexist well with DII? Would it be better to do a fresh OS installation? I'd rather not have to do a fresh installation if I could help it.
Third, assuming I get home with the download and get on line, how do I meet up with people? I read Bolty's recent post about the guild, but I think that thread presupposes knowledge that I do not yet have.
Is there anything else that I should know that might save me a lot of grief?
Thanks!
