having just graduated myself, this is really not surprising. its also not really that new of a concept -- after dealing with one semester of college book prices (which cost my friends and i 400 to 600 dollars each) many people started pirat

being a big fan of scrabble, id hate to see scrabulous go away (although admittedly i haven't tried out the official scrabble game yet). however, what i don't understand is why these guys didn't sell to hasbro when they had the opportunity
