there was one person who wanted this link. so i figured i'd post it in case anyone else was interested.
http://www.myfreesoftware.com/2000freebies/golden.htm they offer free software, you pay shipping. i used this website with no problem. i ordered the golden t package deal and one other cd rom. shipping was the same for 1 or 3, i figured i might as well maximize my $(which was around $7.00 i think). the only caveat is that they aren't exactly prompt with shipping, it took about 3-4 weeks for my discs to arrive. so if your not in a hurry this is a good decent deal. the roms don't come with any packaging or paperwork, but from what i can tell they are legit copies. this worked for me but i'm not responsible if anyone has problems.

i could have just gone to kazaalite and d/l, but it's nice to have the real deal. and if you don't have cable/dsl, that is one long d/l. i still haven't found a decent source of legit add on course discs. maybe ebay? otherwise it's kazaalite(or whatever you use).
i sure wish i.t. would have continued support for this game or released a course designer. it would be nice to have more than 6 courses. i think they were afraid of losing players using there bread and butter uprights.
