If you're desperate, why don't you just burn a copy?

The game is 20 years old. How chomping at the bit can you get? Not excited enough to burn a CD-R. It needs to involve money, apparently.

I don't think he knows what it means and is therefore assuming that it's an insult.

A: I wasn't calling you fat, nor have I ever heard that term used in that manner.
B: What was the first time? 
C: Not sure how you've survived this long on the Neo forums, but I'll keep your delicate sensibilities in mind in the future.

Well, obviously you do care.  Listen, dude.  I was just joking around, making reference to the guys that were joking around about it on the Neo forums yesterday.  I didn't do anything in a mean-spirited manner and I'm sorry that you took it that way.  I was just trying to have a bit of fun with you.  Had I known that it was going to rub a raw nerve, I wouldn't have done it.

It's also a term for calling someone fat. This is the second time in 24 hours Jibba's poked fun of the name in a mean-spirited way. I can't figure out why, since I never say anything to him.

Probably because you're such a pussy.

Sapphire wasn't released in North America and there isn't any kind of Turbo prototype version to bootleg. You might have more luck in the PC Engine section.

I don't want to just burn a cd-r copy because I've never been able to successfully burn a game and make it work. If someone would like to burn me a copy I'll pay for it but it has to be burned on a silver disk. The only time I put a cd-r in my turbo duo it was a blue disk and it locked up my laser. I'm sorry if I posted this in the wrong place. So anyone who's will to help me out pm me. Ide like one of the pceworks repros but if u know how to properly burn of engine games a CD-R on a silver disk is fine.

Comrade, put some more time-energy joining conversations and I bet someone would help you out as a favor.

You don't have to be profound. Or an expert. Or anything.

It doesn't happen overnight, but that's what's nice about our little nook of the interwebz.

Folks help each other.

Some really young kids have no idea what a CD is. My friend teaches middle school, and he asked someone to bring in a CD of their favorite music to for a project, and everyone stared at him blankly. He then requested people bring in flash drives with their favorite music on it, and got a lot of ohhs.

We were discussing this recently, soon the save icon, diskette, will not be known as a diskette but rather just the sign for save. What does that sign represent, disk? no it represents save, silly.

I'm not entirely surprised that kids catching onto this "retro thing" would have no idea how to burn a cd-r. Although, I recently burned my first set of games for the platform, and it's a lot easier now than it was 15 years ago, almost automatic.

You wouldn't believe the ridiculousness that "kids" can and can't do on a computer. You would think if they could do one thing, like post a video to YouTube , they could open a document or create a slide show. Not always. It blows my mind. Transfer dance of skills has been lost for many.

In the 80's little kid could program a VCR without once looking in the manual.  Today's kid can't do shit.  Give them '80s rotary phone and they are lost in no time:
