    Why yes I am. We're doing 3500 residences to start with & another 13,000 or so by January. Keep in mind we're only engineering / designing it right now, it won't get built until 2005.

    I'm serious.

    What I want to know is exactly how their argument is going to go.

    Nintenlawyer: "Your honor, the defendants like our games enough to tell that fact to other people."

    Da Judge: Um, ok. I hope you have a point somewhere around here.

  5. Re:HP has done that already on DMCA Limited by Sixth Circuit Appeals Court · · Score: 1

    Yes, that's basically Lexmark's Modus Operandi. The Lexmark z12 was $52 when I bought it, the ink lasted about 2 weeks (it dried up before we could use it all) & the replacement carts were about $40 each (1 black, 1 color). I'll never buy another Lexmark & after seeing their piss poor performance & even worse service at work, I'll never get any kind of Lanier printer.

    FYI I'm actually working on this project right now (my company is designing the Dorrs Corner & one other C.O. in Anne Arundel county) & I can tell you there will not be any competition for this as Verizon had to basically get a franchise for the municipality. This also means that they are having to run FTTP throughout the entire C.O. & not just in the more affluent areas.

    What I don't get is various design programs (I'm thinking Autodesk stuff here) have had online collaboration built into them for a while now, other than the fact this thing goes into space, what's the big deal?

    From the FAQ:

    "We're frequently asked this question, and the answer comes in two parts:
    a) Firstly, the feel of using the PST version of IE is completely different than the feeling of using the BG2/TOB version of IE. One of the things that we wanted to make sure we kept from PST was the feel of the game, the style, that certain something that makes PST a completely different game from BG2.
    b) Having said that, we are aware that it's becoming increasingly difficult to obtain PST, as it's out of print. Because of that we are looking into porting the game to other versions of the Infinity Engine and / or using a different engine altogother, such as the one being developed by the GemRB project."

    This has been in the works for quite some time now actually, & I'm glad to see it's finally nearing completion.
