    you seam to be missing one huge giant manificant factor:

    Wheres this prompt going to go?
    On the console?
    after I login?
    in an X-Session?

    if I wanted to use this harddrive, I would mount it
    just like if I want to use my cdrom
    I will mount it
    or I will set it to automaticaly mount at boot time
    just like my harddrives, theres thousands of fancy redhat programs for adding your harddrives to auto mount, and theres billions of ways to make a shell script mount your drives.

    What you keep missing is this "automation" thing.
    I don't run redhat.

    Some people say we live in the 3rd demension, some people say we live in the 3rd and a half demension.
    Since time is believed to be the 4th demension, and we can only travel forward in time (and not back), we can safely say we live in the demension: 3.5.

    Now if you can throw an object behind another object, and once again, throw that object infront of the previous said object, it has a forward/back motion it can achive.

    So this, "z-order", along with "x-alignment" and "z-alignment" is relitivly 3d alignment. We just see it from a front perspective.

  23. Re:As good a time as any.. on TechTV Cracks Open The Xbox · · Score: 1

    exactly
    kinda like Grand Theft Auto 2, if you play without the framerate limiter, everythings so fast, with the limiter, everythings the same pace (unless you blow up a screen full of cars).
    So in general there would be a steady FPS.

    Now if you over clocked it, in theroy you could get 180FPS, but in Grand Theft Auto 2 even when you blew up that screen full of cars (mm..carnage), and the screen would not slow down.

    Even nintendo, when to many fish's were on the screen on mario you would see slowdown.

    I guess where I'm going at is instead of rendering those extra frames (we only want 80, not 180, thats 100 extra frames, 120%) they would strickly render only 80 frames, and save valued GP time, and CPU time.

    This might actually be more a driver issue rather than Game programmer.

    Thats just my 1 cent.
