Honestly... they are tricky, but alot of problems, IE, I have a laptop and it's a pain in the friggin butt to do the alt numbers on notepad as I have to hold down like 3 keys to get a "simulated" side number pad and alt to work, ontop of that, it rarely works like a regular keyboard and insead of putting the proper letters, it does other goofy things. And firefox not allowing me to delete parts of source code... this WOULD be fun if I had a NORMAL computer... after level 14 I just gave up as my computer is simply too odd ball to make things convenient. Also, the sound edit program... that would fry my computer after 5 seconds... alot of the hints i had to do from memory of tinkering around on a relgualr computer years ago (why the hell do I always photographicly memorize worthless crap like ALTernative as they put it... ) Great page, challenging hints, but by the time i'd find the answer, I realized my computer's retarded design made the crap 10 times harder for me) It's like trying to unwrap a stick of gum wearing mittens... Sigh... I'll post this on my favorites and wait to play it when I have a regular desktop that can handle small programs (seriously, this thing has a temper tantrum if i run windows media player too long)
*EDIT*
I do know ways around my laptop's "short comings", such as the compact keyboard layout, but it's just not worth the extra trouble to me.. It just multiplies the steps I'd normally have to take by 3. So instead of a 3 step way of finding the shit i need, it turns into 9... I could look up the charts and keys as well, but that would take away the "do it yourself" feel on notepad, which in my opinion, is what makes this riddle game fun.
