Arrrggghhh -- 3:02 pm CST, Update by A.T. Hun

I bought a Toy Story CD-ROM for my son's birthday and tried to install it today. It insisted on installing an old (2.something) version of QuickTime, which of course hosed my QuickTime 5 installation. Plus the CD insists on being run in 256 colors. Whoever wrote this should be shot directly in the head.

The Master comments: Heh-had that same problem with Reader Rabbit-it installs spyware too. Unfortunately, Kid software is somehow considered a bottom-feeder market, so nobody puts in the time to make good installers or to support newer PCs.
