They are all wrong... It's a little guy in the computer with chalk, drawing the pictures on the screen. Sometimes when the screen "freezes" - it's him taking a break.
After a long spell at the coomputer you can usually hear him gasping for breath.
When he has run out of colours and he only has blue left - that when you get the BSOD.

Answer:- YES, But PC's are getting faster and faster, and if you are not upgrading/replacing your PC on a weekly basis you are not a true GEEK.
What we really need are graphics cards optimised for the 2D environment in general and specific OS's in particular.
There is lots of 3D dev's going on - perhaps the graphis people are letting us down.
The alternative of course is to revert back to that good old command line. At least then you had to think about what you were doing?
Ahhh... CSN.
/. bet the MTV/VH1 of IT?
The memories come flooding back. Far better than any video.
I wonder? will
One thing is for certain, they won't give these batteries away. If they tried to no one would take them...
Imagine "Battery sir... no charge"
It has just stuck me...
... are we seeing the greenhouse effect!
With many of the worlds computers running windows...
It's interesting to note that these security hacks and loop holes are not just restricted to "windows".
As other OS's and app's become more popular we will see a rise in breaches and attempted breaches of these systems.
No matter if your an Admin of a "microsoft", "Sun", "Linux" system. Security should still be on your agenda regardless of system.
Keep the effects simple, the price high. It will be interesting to see the effects on the dynamics of the game. Will it model the real world?
It could be a good experiment this!
What would be really nice to see would be games that use a combination of a board game and a pc/pda/handheld etc.
Its not a new idea either. I have still got some old stuff that runs on a PET (Dneiper River Line - I think they called it)
Good nostalgic stuff - can we have some more please.
God mode by default - nice
How can they have eliminated classes. Even if its in a class of its own its in a class, and if its in a class.... (Russels paradox)
With the world the way it is today, should we not be protecting the ateroids from the earth?
So! This is what free speech is all about. GIGO.
Try M$, It appears some of their code is in the open!
Just remember...
God has prior art on this.
Will the new computers built of this material be more suceptable to virus attack!
It could only happen in America!

One thing is for certain... it will get cracked.
If it was a MS product, it would get cracked quicker.
I see they're still trying to push the envelope. Perhaps what they should be doing in folding it over, sticking it down, and posting it.
Install the OS - then lock the door. Problem solved.
This frog is boiling.
They are all wrong...

Is this what people refer to as the slashdot effect!

I have a friend who eats staplers. His doctor told him he needed a staple diet.
Apparently the Pope does so too(has a Papal diet)
Hi
For Microsoft, Linux is a disruptive technology - and its coming up fast.
How are they to deal with this?
1. Embrace it (read buy it, own it, pretend they invented it) or,
2. Disrupt it before it gets any further (how:- develop a windows emulator for it - see replies below)
Whatever , Microsoft are not daft.
