(Dick was going to throw darts at a bar and Channel got involved.)
Dick: I gotta throw.
Channel:. Hey Dick, put it right in the hole!
Dick:. Like the whole fist?
Channel:. No! Like shoulder deep!
Dick:. That might be too much!
Channel:. Nah! Your just horsing around!
n. software that is no longer sold or supported by the original publisher / developer, often found as free downloads on the internet because it cannot be obtained elsewhere. Not legal, but often seen as morally acceptable because the company that made it is no longer selling the title, nor releasing it as freeware, therefore abandonware is "keeping the gamealive", so to speak.
Doom II is not abandonware because idstill sells it, while The Incredible Machine is not sold, therefore is abandonware.
