It's an MMO, holy shit.
This makes me really happy. VB6 was my start into programming.
I got my first computer at 16 (we were poor). I immediately found out how to download pirated VB6 (sorry Microsoft). It was almost the exact size of the available space on my 2GB HDD, which had nothing more than the bare windows install, AOL, and a download manager. It took like four weeks to download the ~1GB, because I could only run it surreptitiously overnight to keep my father happy, and it was dial-up 56k. It was difficult to write to cd because of buffer issues.
When I finally got it installed, I think I had something like 8mb of free space on the disk. I could work on one VB6 project and have like 2 mp3 files.
Eventually I got an ELN account and I was able to uninstall AOL, freeing up a lot of space.
Those were really good times.
