I gotta hand it to Blizzard. They, for the most part, really know how to take care of their customers. I purchased the old Warcraft III and Diablo II games years ago. At this point the original CDs are just about unusable, for example I figured out I could still play Diablo II, but only if I could start a new game within 6 seconds of the main menu appearing. Now blizzard has set-up a system to allow those of us who have bought their older games to enter our old CD keys and download a non-CD version of the same games. They were definitely under no obligation to do this, but they did it anyways. It just goes to show you that Blizz really does care about their customers, even the older ones who may not have bought anything from them for a while.
I only have one gripe and it’s not even Blizz’s fault. In one of the recent updates to Leopard, Apple removed the 256 color mode (which these older games rely on) for their computers with NVidia cards. So for now I cannot play them, but rumor has it that the upcoming 10.5.5 update is supposed to restore that function and allow these games to be played again.
