I met Er Cecio in this way, and since I was able to bring him a market ten times bigger than he had, we agreed that I was intended to take all the orders, and he was using his brother's computer in order to burn down all the copies of the newest games (which were, for instance, warcraft 2, tomb raider, and so on). Then I was supposed to go all around Rome with these cds and deliver'em to the guys... it was kinda fun, it allowed me to earn really a lot of money and we were absolutely cheap. Baffo's shop, which had a rear-hidden room in which there was always a strange man surrounded by monitors and boxes of nobody-really-knew-what disks and cdroms, suddenly closed because of a police break-in... so we thought it was time to stop it. Meantimes, internet was so taking over it that we were losing our market. Nobody knew who sent the police over Baffo's, what happened then was that he contacted me personally to know if I was able to bring his market back. He was going to focus on Twilight Compilations. I realized that Twilight Compilations were of no use to most of the people, so I dropped... From that day, I always managed to get my games by internet... then p2p, there's no skill in that, and it is like games have a different flavour. Since I know I can get any game I want, I get usually easily bored. I miss that times, probably our nostalgia relies in the fact that we can obtain nearly anything we want in this life, except bringing back the past. I see this as a chance to improve... when you know your past, you can know your future too. Thanks Fulvio for bringing me back again to the past. Now I only need 1.21 GW to get back.
