Though I expect WoW to be rather nice, I can't seem to get into 3d mmorpg's. I don't know if its the fact that I hate seeing a 3d world but having such crap control of it.
I know I'll probably get laughed at for this, but FPS's have build a very nice way of controling your players.. and usually its rather smooth movements. Games i've played, like Lineage 2, FFXI, these games make me use my mouse to move my character around.. and I don't like it.. Aim, swing, I could see that for my mouse.. But moving, I would far rather use fingers.
Perhaps to create a larger vehicle (to seat more passengers) would cause the weight and mass of it to be too large to use a big heatshield in the way they currently do it?
Imagine trying to find storage for all that though. Lets say a gas station gets about a thousand people a day (depending on where it is located, more or less), how would you fit all those batteries?
This isn't knocking your idea, I like it alot actually. There would just need to be some method of storage.. perhaps an underground network with a robotic storage system? Once a spent battery is returned, its moved into a recharge area and charged until useful.. then throwed back into the population..
Then you get lamers doing 85% charges to save on costs..
Agreed, on a laptop even. I played out the whole game on my laptop (HL2 even), Pentium M 1.5GHz 512MB Ram Radeon 9200 32MB Dedicated. I used high settings and only got the sound/graphic issues that were recently posted on slashdot. I've been quite surprised at my laptop's ability to run applications and games past my desktop.
For awhile I was in search of the x86 version of Apple's Rhapsody DR2. Finally after speaking to a guy who created a page of screenshots, I found a beta software trading forum and grabbed an ISO of it. This guy also has screenshots of OpenStep too.. He's been running this site for years and its given me quite a nice look into the past. Its interesting never the less:)

They're busy dealing with this.

Just my two cents.

Not the first time Russia and the United States had similar projects appear well, rather similar.
