I know if an RPG takes up 200hrs. The last thing I am going to do is squeeze in 2 RPGs and cram in 400hrs. Games nowadays, while not the most innovative, are deep as hell. You spend all your time unlocking this and that.
Which also brings up another point.... why do I want to buy all these games just to unlock stuff day after day. Where's that FUN FACTOR.
Heh, you can't argue the fact that more people knows windows than linux. Just that alone should makes it easier to hire less administrators or cheaper admins.
Seems like I wasted a huge $300 on my ATI Radeon 9800 128mb a while back. I can't even get 30FPS at 640x480 consistently in Doom III. Now I just don't know what to do?
Dump the ATI and get an Nvidia? Doom III is just sitting at home collecting dust, and it performs so shitty. I don't expect anything better for the catalyst 3.9 either.
Uh yes, we were in a meeting and someone pointed out that we should try SCO linux. The whole room started laughing. Boy, last time I lol to tears was watching some rerun of Naked Gun 2.
Just the same as running some endless sound test which causes endless vibration to your controller. It's important to have a firm grip under those circumstances.
Most countries around the world are not flooded with lawyers like it is here in the U.S. Depending on your perspective, there is a good and a bad. According to slashdot, mostly bad.
Every MBA I have met is brutally good with golf, and they know everyone left and right via contacts. But they can't make any decisions without a thousand phone calls. I sound like I am stereotyping big time, but I have yet to find one MBA to prove me wrong otherwise. So roxio... blame your MBAs and grad students. Don't blame the accountants and engineers.
If you were reading up on olympic progress, the greek folks are just behind assembling everything. From track paint to a roof over a new pool. What makes you think they took the liberty to install surveillance on time when everything else is delayed. No offense on greek folks please. This is just fact.
The thing that crossed my mind immediately.. if they can't engineer anything right. Why did people steal their sourcecode to begin with? That's where I am really scratching my head.
So the money goes to the lawyers. The engineer puts out bad product with bad code. The lawyers sue others for stolen code. Isn't there something royally wrong with this picture.
There is nothing you mentioned here that I can't get in the linux world for FREE.
The market is no longer windows and apple. It's windows and lindows and redhat and apple and 8 million other OSes. Unless something ridiculous comes out, we'll never go back to the days of 2 operating systems.
In today's economy, I don't see how noncompetes would hold up in court. They were probably useful in 1998-2000 dot-com boom times.
Seriously people have to make a living. The judge can't tell you to not use your skills to feed your damn family. The case would have to be super convincing like copying codes line by line. Even that isn't easy for ex-companies to come after you. Look at SCO.
Hmm... does congress have the communities backup for banning P2P? No.
The pro far outweights the con. Even if they ban p2p, other people can share service packs different ways. What are they going to do, ban bit-tolerant, ftp and every other protocol? This is lame. The government will never be ahead of the technology curve.
That is so true. BUT IE is the first product I have heard where M$ publicly claims, it isn't good enough.
People are not unedumacated like back in the days when IE5 and 6 where released. People know the pain of adware, spyware, viruses and deadly vbscripts nowadays. That's why it'd be a true miracle if IE can live up to the new competition. Round 2 browser wars yeeehaaaa.
I know exactly what you mean. Where are all the fencing, Taekwondo, shooting?
The events they show are 80% track and field or swimming related. The conspiracy is that American TV always show events that they dominate in. For example, they used to show more olympic basketball until dream team shit the gutter.
Wow someone actually have the balls to ask for a linux version when the windows one barely works for most users.
Last I checked, the doom3 technical support forum at gamespy had 16000 posts in 3 days. Hmmm... looks like I am not the only one experiencing slow frame rates with catalyst drivers on ATI cards after a million hacks and cfg modifications.
I have heard there is a program in windows and mac that can upload and download stuff in folder form. So I can see the iPod contents where playlist are in individual folders etc.
Does any iTune expert know if this program is a myth or a real iTune alternative?
Man, don't be sick of the arguement. An OS that nobody argues about does not get any attention. Look at IBM AIX for example, I think it's superior to IBM linux. But slashdotters wouldn't even waste time comparing it with windows. So it's another OS in the back burner. While IBM linux is now making a head way.
No offense but I know the pain of a 4 year college. And the fact that 2 percent of the things I learned are directly applicable. And I do hi-tech with a degree in CS and MIS.
Physics, Calculus, Economics... if you really know your subject prior to going to classes. You'll know most college professors don't know how to teach for shit. They are just there to do research publications to give the school a good name.

Pfff.... if any group should complain about being in video games in a demeaning fashion, native americans should be the first.
Well they could have titled the headline "computers". Now that's really wide open.

RTM usually means there are about 60 hotfixes to follow.
I swear among all OSes, AIX is the only OS that has figured out how to pack near perfect patches. M$ still has alot to learn from IBM, even in 2004.
That is so true. BUT IE is the first product I have heard where M$ publicly claims, it isn't good enough.
People are not unedumacated like back in the days when IE5 and 6 where released. People know the pain of adware, spyware, viruses and deadly vbscripts nowadays. That's why it'd be a true miracle if IE can live up to the new competition. Round 2 browser wars yeeehaaaa.

Usually when M$ goes gold it doesn't mean a damn thing. For any M$ patch or software, it has to go...

BigMan?? Does that mean Microsoft.

I think the article is a mis-print. They really mean SCO giving out Google stocks in consultants etc in the past 3 years.

They better run DOS. Cause kids will abuse the hell out of this thing.
Not to mention if there is any internet access. Woah. Mommy what's penial enhancement.
