That's 20km/65kph = 1107 seconds. Which converts to slightly less than 942 KBps. Now, I don't know what kind of ISPs they have in New Zealand, but 1MBps shouldn't be that hard to achieve! Even using the announced 3GB capacity of a single bird, that's just 3MBps.
Sure, but last time i checked, getting an internet connection underground behind kilometers of rock at that speed isn't really possible....
I thought ID wasn't wanting to release a quake 4 after all the work that went into III.
And what is happening to Doom 3? Wasn't that being developed as well?
But you're still going to have to buy the gold, right?
Well, you could buy it using some more gold that you got with that other gold that you got with........:) --
At the school I go to we have a bit more of a telephone running off a bit less than a parallel port.
It is actually a BBC Micro that is pre-programmed in BBC Basic to ring the school bells by switching on the tape motor for a few seconds then back off again.
The cool thing is, we can set our clocks to synchronise with the BBC and can be all set to leave class at exactly the right moment.
Back to Something totally boring, I only have a Zip drive running of my ppa port BUT i do have this strange old "Portable Hard Disk" that is ment to connect somehow. How? I have no Idea.

alt-tab sometimes works
its fine for UT and GTA2

Same thing happened to me, and i have the version that comes with WindowsXP (not that i use it).
Hmmmmm. Whats going on here......
Come on, its only 2MB.
What kind of "Mother of all patches" do you call that.
It should be at least 30MB, maybe even more.....
Yes...
I had 2 goes of installing 5.2 and couldn't get i to work, before finding a copy of 5.1a which did.
Hopefully 6.0 will improve on this
The ability to sort archived comments is a good one.
