Hi all!
Just thought I'd mention this, in case you've never seen this set of games. LucasArts makes a wonderful set of adventure games with gorgeous art and memorable, foot-tapping music. The writers are truly hilarious and you'll laugh the whole way thru. It's a great way to get the family (and friends) around the tube and share many evenings of fun trying to group-solve the plot puzzles. Here's a pic (I added the text captions cuz I don't know how to capture the live voices and music).

This is by FAR my favorite set of PC adventure games. I noticed they have /really/ been marked down at Amazon:
Curse of Monkey Island (part 3) - $9.99 (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B00004WGVX/qid=1078283149//ref=pd_ka_2/002-1353779-0020848?v=glance&s=software&n=507846)
Escape from Monkey Island (part 4, 3D) - $9.99 (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B000063LGY/qid=1078283149//ref=pd_ka_1/002-1353779-0020848?v=glance&s=videogames&n=507846)
You can even buy the whole series as a bundle for less than the price I paid for one:
Mega Money Bundle of 4 ($27.99) (http://www.lucasarts.com/companystore/specials/monkey_bundle.htm)
These are REALLY REALLY fun. And if you've been looking for a family night center piece or friends/kids get together, this'll do it for sure.
Toodles,
