But old games would sometimes ask me to register the software to get free help and updates or whatever. And I had to click no thanks every time I installed one of those games. I thought it was suuuch a hassle.

If funny now, but if we're honest with ourselves, it still pissed us off, then.

It felt like I would always find that damn screen sitting there waiting on an answer, after leaving the installer running overnight. I would click "no thank you" and then see "your installer is starting, progress 0%".
