I never understood why downloaded files like to have NFO files versus a strait text file. I usually rename it to RTF and open it that way. When I try to open it before the rename it tries to open the file with the "System "Information" program and of course it doesn't open the file because it's not really that type of file. No "official" product has an nfo file. Is there some kind of "law" that everything that is a "bootleg" so to speak must have this nfo file? I think a regularly named text file would be better.
