My company forces me to do my development on Windows so I've been changing editors a lot to figure out what I'd like to use.
For the previous two months I was using Jbuilder 4 from Borland (the free one) and found it quite limiting. Jbuilder claims to have an emacs keymapping, but it wasn't close enough, and didn't allow me to customize. Plus Jbuilder was fairly slow compared to Eclipse.
Eclipse has very nice window support, allowing me to position my workspace how I'd like. The remote debugger was very easy to attach to my weblogic instance, and I've found the editor to be acceptable so far. (I haven't tried switching to using Emac's shortcuts yet... ).
Unfortunately Emac's just isn't integrated enough for me to do Java development. I still use it for my regular editor and quick cleanups though.
Another CGI film they forgot to mention is BloodQuest from Exile Films. (They must have forgotten it, *Everyone* knows about Warhammer:) )
It's based on Games Workshop's Warhammer 40K universe, and looks like it has to possibility to be exciting (atleast to people who follow the hobby)
Check out the Exile films site for some neat preview animations and renderings.
I've own FLUXX and it rocks!! Another great game from LooneyLabs is Chrononauts.
My group just started playing some games from Steve Jackson Games. Our favorites are Munchkin, and Chez Geek. I haven't tried it yet, but Hacker is supposed to be really cool as well.
Finally Settlers of Catan from Mayfair Games is a really neat game for 4 players. I played this past weekend, and can't wait to play again!
According to The digitalbits (check the news under 11/7/01) Paramount is still planning on doing directors cut's for all of them. For now you'll have to make do with ST:TMP Directors cut and wait for the rest.
