This forum is for Computers and Technology general discussion and help.

Rules regarding any software-related topics posted here:
  • You can also post links to interesting, helpful, or cool software that you have found.
    Freeware and Shareware Only. No discussion of Warez, Cracks, Serials, Emulators or Roms.

    What are Emulators, ROMs, Warez, Cracks, and Serials?

    Emulator: A program that simulates (or does the same thing as) the original thing. Example: The Nintendo 64 (N64) plays Nintendo 64 games. But to play them on your PC or Macintosh, you need the Emulator and the ROM.

    ROM: A file on your computer similar to the original thing (like a Nintendo 64 game).

    Warez: Warez is illegal or pirated software. Nothing for you to worry about if you don't have it, or talk about it.

    Crack: A crack is something to break the various copyright protection and registration techniques used by the software.

    Serial: A serial is used in a crack, to illegally register software. Some serials are legal, however.
