Any Shadowrun players here?

FYI: Shadowrun is not a computer game it is a traditional RPG - you know the kind played with lots of pretzels/chips, beer/coke, paper, pencils, piles of books, many dice, and a full on imagination!

I am about to create a new character and was also wondering if anyone knew of an exceptional site to find resources (something that champions the greatness of Edition 3, and exposes the quagmire that is Edition 4).

Is the game text-based? or can we download it? Is it free, beta or paid?
Don't forget to post the link, so people can read about it too.

The game is text and talk based - It is not on a computer at all. It consists of a guide manual and a bunch of people sitting around a room chatting, eating, and rolling dice, with one of those people designated as GM -Game master (or DM - Dungeon Master- in games based more directly on D&D)

the offical web site for shadowrun is:

Sorry i misread..heh.
I was staring at the name of the game and googling what it was. Then i checked the website and it doesn't say anything about a game, only a few books.

Never played these kinds of text-based rpg's.
