Congratulation!

SE IV deserves that economical success.

I wouldn't expect a company of Shrapnel's size to have the capital to order press runs of tens of thousands of CDs, so I imagine the sales numbers would be in the thousands. It also seems to me that most game companies consider sales figures to be proprietary information, so I wouldn't expect any answer to be more exact than order of magnitude, either.

Cap'n Q

The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the
human mind to correlate all of its contents. We live on a placid
island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was
not meant that we should go far. -- HP Lovecraft, "The Call of Cthulhu"
