[edit] Advertisment?
It is only a simply stub, not a advertisment at all. These are facts that are known to Hong Kong people. But it does have a potential to expand, however I lack information on it. --Leeyc0 10:36, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
- Not just to Hong Kong people, but to some tourists as what that stub don't mention is, it does has a lot of noteriety especially with the police with selling pirated software. Also it is mentioned at the Lonely Planet HK guide. --Willirennen 12:55, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

- During 1980s and early 1990s, intellectual property of computer software is not yet an issue in Hong Kong, like many other Asian countries. After years the Customs seriously cleaning the arcade, priated software is virtually disappeared in the arcade. Are you sure police force participating in selling pirated software? (Or I misintrepret your sentence?) Can you quote the related text and the years of publication of your tour guide?

- I added some information regarding the history of the bottom floor and its role in software piracy in the past. I left Hong Kong in 1996, so any clarifications or corrections are welcome. EdmundWong 02:31, 11 November 2006 (UTC)
