If you're going to be condescending at least be correct.

Oh well, keep it coming - any useful suggestions are appreciated. Thanks also to everyone who responded.

I've e-mailed XGameGear asking about availability, and haven't gotten a reply. It's only been since Friday, though, so I'm still holding out hope.
Well actually, you don't install the game onto your hard drive via CD-ROM, but you run the game directly off the CD-ROM... so that if you copy the contents of the CD-ROM to your hard drive, it runs fine as well (many people chose to do this... for backup and other related reasons). Most Web sites offer a zip with the files and folders found in the original CD-ROM. Also, Perfect Collection PC has been out-of-print since 2001, and Prex 3 PC a little before 2005, so xgamegear.com is probably not going to have it.

Having played PIU since 2000 and from being present around various US PIU and Bemani sites... trust me... nobody is going to be willing to sell their original Prex 3 PC or Perfect Collection CDs, which are almost collector's items at this point.
