Re: Old schoolers?

Heh, this brought back memories. Miss all the folks I met over the time I was active (inactive before 90 cap released) - actually made it to 80 cap and had enough sp farmed for skills! I don't miss the grind much, but do miss the gameplay and especially the jobbing. (note: Xian thieves, I hated your...

@Pr0metheus - Win 7 RC's min. requirements are the same as Vista Home Premium/Business/Ultimate (min 1 GB Ram).
