Why would I burn myself a German install disc? :|

Fortunately, I could do the Windows install process blindfolded.

As much as I stand by OS X in every field, one really does have to admit that it's lacking in the game department.

Also, I want to move the games I already do play on my Mac to the PC to free up space.

German is so similar to English that you probably could figure it out.

I set my iPod so everything would be in German, and yet I understand what it says.  psyduck;

Yeah, I notice that too. It's pretty easy to get the gist of any German phrase/sentence even if you've never learned a word of German.

Yeah, exactly. That's why it's so easy.

I have a downloaded copy of Windows XP that you can fully update, do you need it?

No, the German one worked fine.

If it hadn't, I have a bunch of those blue OS install discs that come with Dell/Compaq/etc computers, although most of them are SP1 and install shitty bundled apps and brand-specific stuff.

Those only reinstall IIRC. I could never get them to install the OS for some stupid reason. But that was 3~4 years ago.
