  1. Re:How much? on MS Sales Growth Limited by Delays in Windows · · Score: 1

    Well right, but that's the reason they cost less is because the OEM is supposed to support them, correct?

    OEM = no support from MS right?

    LOL, don't go shopping for Microstation v8, ArcGIS/IM/FM/SDE, AutoCAD, or any professional 3D Animation/Modeling program. $250-$300 is a drop in the bucket compared to the cost of these programs. No, Edu. versions don't count.

  4. Re:nah on Sasser Author Under Arrest, Say German Police · · Score: 1

    This might be offtopic but it's not really flamebait. A history teacher at my highschool had a Nazi flag on a table in his room, it was appropriate for the current lesson & had been being used for years. Well, a german exchange student, I believe his name was Tomas, we had visiting our school was walking by the classroom & happened to catch a glimpse of the flag (folded on a table) & he went apeshit. He busted into the classroom (between classes thankfully) and started raising hell, yelling what were surely german swear words and such at the teacher & the flag. It took about an hour to calm him down, the flag was put away for the remainder of the year.

    My uncle has made *millions* growing & selling a single, particular type of onion & a few other vegetables. He just recently quit growing tobacco *for ethical reasons*. This is a family owned farm. He gets no subsidies. If you can't make money growing something in the US you haven't found the right niche.

    I mean if this is for real, this is a big deal towards getting Joe User & Bob WindowsPowerUser onto Linux. I can't wait to see it in action.

    Yeah I hear they come with nice posters & cover art. True media pirates & people that support them, like yourself, are the reason we're having to jump thru these fucking hoops in the first place.

    Don't get me wrong I have a pretty sizable "legal" collection, but I think my last RIAA purchase was "The Downward Spiral" when it was new.

    Well how come that doesn't work for the state laws in California that make it legal to distribute pot to the chronically ill? Is it only for labor that state laws supercede & if so why is that?

  23. Re:I have an Informative +9, Troll Slayer! on The Trouble With Using D&D Rules In Videogames? · · Score: 1

    I just bought ToEE at GoGamer.com yesterday off of the prase it received from a friend of mine. I also really enjoyed Arcanum which was made by the same company. I didn't care for NWN but I loved Baldur's Gate I & II, Planescape Torment, & Both of the Icewind Dale games. I'm hoping this game is more of the same. One of the reasons I decided to get it was that I heard it was about as close to the original PnP module as you could get in a PC game. The Mods for NWN aren't even close.
