wow, what surprises me even more is that on amazon the platform indication is this: *Platform: **PC (Windows 98 / 2000 / XP / Me) *:s :s
Is anybody still running 98/ME? for other games on amazon, the indication is correct (xp/vista), so i'm wondering a bit whether or not i should try to install the game on win98 just for the kicks of it :p

Well, I've no idea how good the actual game is. But I know Stephen went almost crazy last night, trying to install it for hours, while that guy almost never loses his nerves :D
Look at this : http://www.amazon.com/Grand-Theft-Auto-IV-Pc/dp/B001BNFQKO/ref=pd_bbs_sr_2?ie=UTF8&s=software&qid=1228393816&sr=8-2 --> look at the rating!
Apparently, you need some damn good specs to be able to play this game.. "GTA IV brings my dual core 3ghz to its knees and then some" We'll definitely have to ask IT for new computers for the lanparty.
