People here seldom used "Arcade" to refer to Golden Shopping 
Arcade, but "Golden" only. Guess I missed your stayle of 
shorthands. Sorry about that.

Speaking of rip-off, there were people selling OEM software in 
used markets. BEfore the enforcement of the new laws, few buyers 
caerd about the licensing terms required for OEM stuffs. Those 
who sold teh OEM software were actually taking advantage of 
people's ignorance about OEM laws.

So you think copyright laws are good, and protecting honest 
merchants (if not the programmers)?
