Someone put a photo of their D2 LOD Beta CD on Reddit haha. That's cool.

Wow - I've never seen one of those.

I see these pop on up ebay from time to time, the original classic one is more rare than the LoD for some reason, despite both having 1k copies made. I can't bring myself to buy one though, they are cool collector's pieces I guess especially if you were the original tester, but they are paperweights and dont work. I did crack the LoD beta shown in this photo (1.07.41) but it's still an approximation and not genuine.

I have my own homemade version of the d2 and d1 battle.net betas. ChickenBuckets made a high res disc scan+dump years ago if you want to make one too.

@galaxyhaxz Can you share a link to the ChickenBuckets scan, or upload it to the forum? For archival purposes, please?

@Manny it's listed as part of my 1.07 - 1.08 analysis post. Look for Galaxy's name in the OP.

I need to update the scans since I have a higher quality scanner these days and to do another rip of the discs and put it on archive.org for all to have.

That would be awesome @ChickenBuckets. Let us know when you do that, I would be interested for us to also maintain a hosted copy as well.
