I'm perfectly a potential victim to comprehension errors.However
"Next, insert the disc to be upgraded in the player, push "Play" and allow the disc to play for 2 seconds"
or
"The Chip can also be placed on top of the player while the disc is already playing with similar results"
or
"If left on top of the player, the Chip will not function until the next disc to be upgraded is inserted in the player and played."
or
"the upgrade will e completed in 2 seconds of playing"
to me sounds like "put the chip onto the CD player, insert a CD and spin it", does it not ?
What is similarly amusing is that you seem to know THAT I'm wrong, but you are not capable or willing of telling me/us WHERE I'm wrong, WHY I'm wrong and WHAT is right.
BTW, I just went to Machina Dynamica's site and saw that the passage anouncing the soon-to-come DEFINITIVE EXPLANATION has been re-inserted. I'm looking forward to reading it.
