I don't find this shocking, due to the iPhone and iPod touch. They have learned a lot about the touch screen tech out there. Why wouldn't they expand into this area? It only makes sense that they look into it, remember ordered some screens doesn't make it a complete product for consumers. It maybe a year or two before we see anything for us to buy. Id would like to see it.
I noticed that during this free weekend of unreal III my bought copy from way before the weekend wanted to update? the last time i checked there was no updates to unreal III at the time, could have been a small bug making everyone who had the game update while the free download was going on, Im going to have to keep an eye out for the next free weekend and see if i have the game and same issue.
ok let me tell you one thing, these people that are putting this threw are politicians if they can stop one man from speaking then they can slowly tweak it to shut up anyone that's not a part of the government. It doesnt matter what the item is, its just the start of a landslide.
that's true..there is always someone creative enough to exploit any type of software out there. Cause if they didn't then none of use would have jobs or anything to bitch about.
thats a good one but i have to say Adobe wrote the plugin for Firefox.
What I'm trying to say Windows doesnt call FireFox to open an explore window, like it does for IE.
Due to the reason that FireFox cant be tied into other parts of the OS like IE is. A problem in IE = a flaw in some other item Microsoft wanted to string together with their software.
Thanks man I did need a good laugh today.
We will just have to wait and see who buys.
btw Hunts is horrible stuff, again my opinion there. Go ahead go off again like the first time when i stated my opinion in all of this i guess you missed the "Troll part"?
My whole point is people will buy it if they want it. That was also the "people that want the Apple name"
Im done with this rant or statement
"Looking down on others because you can't comprehend psychology and economics doesn't make you elite. It makes you an uneducated snot who's far more pretentious than the people you're looking down on."
Now where did you get that from man I was making a joke. I have many pieces of equipment in my house and work. The main point is for a normal home user these prices don't make sense. Companies will spend it due to how long they can keep it in production unlike home users who like to upgrade every two to three years. Let just see who buys and who doesnt.
Because the more time the spend up there the more grants they can get for future trips because they found new things we need to explore and look into.
They may miss something important if they are traveling in a something.
People that want the Apple name in their house and dont understand the the the price they are paying is not worth the equipment they are getting.
I hope they dont sell and Apple has to drop the price to where it should be for the equipment you get. Hold on what am I thinking this is Apple the all mighty and great the fans will flock to them and pay what ever they want. Dont you wish every company out there had the fad and cool factor they did?? Im going back to the bar, make me as a troll on this one.
What was the model of the ATI card you had, was it a first gen or was the model out for awhile? You leave us very little details to see what you are talking about. I have had both NVidia & ATI cards go bad all where first gen thats why i now wait a few months then they have the the drivers and updated the fans on the cards to fix the problems with the first patch.
It is a closed beta, damn shame too, close betas dont find too many bugs. Open betas get more done with finding issues due to the mass mount of people.
Churning out the same game with a new graphics engine seems to be the trend nowadays with EA. shame really.
The biggest offender of the should be any Madden game..
I for one bought 2142 and liked it but the lack of updates/patches and new addons with out paying for them sucks. Also they have yet to release the sdk packs for 2142 yes you can use the bf2 ones if you mess around and tweak it but thats too much of a pain. (if im wrong about this point me into the direction for it) But if EA would release the sdk pack and let the modders fix and tweak the game to run correctly for people.
Im starting to think about some of the old classic games making a somewhat come back on these machines.
Doom, quake, Warcraft? or just someone creating a bunch of open source games for them, but then again im starting to show my age for the classic games.

I think im going to start saving some cash.
first generation chips will be slow, but give them time, Nvidia will make this chip worth the budge chip video in laptops and more, anything over intels video is a major step up.
Let the war begin....
Im guessing that your company or work is not part of the "World". I dont know what you do or if you work, my company has buildings in 36 different countries. We support the education of the third world. So America doesnt make the most of what it has and buys then just junks a good piece of equipment. With the new tech and what we have learned they can make better decisions if its open to them.
I think this all has to due to the program or database you are running, a pagefile maybe more usefull than just ram. I all depends on the app you are using and how it works. Some items run better with a swap others just want ram.

And this goes to show that anything can be done just to say yes we can change it. Even when the company that makes it say nope not an option.

Maybe this is for people who already have hamsters as pets, now you can put them to work.
OK that's a winner.

I can understand that if you had all those problems. I wish you luck.

what software are you using?? And was this a first release of the Athlon XP chip?
i had this problem I went into the reg and deleted the string now it doesn't come back.
