    Sid Meier's Pirates! Guide

    Yup, Daerandin found that out a few weeks ago. That overlay is causing problems, but I have no idea if wine is working on a fix or not.

    Allow me to thank the mindless miners

    Yeah, I never understood the GS, GTX, GT, Ti naming schemes. I would pick a generation like 500 and choose one in my budget range. I normally won't spend more than $150
