    I've jumped off it, hurts like hell even thru shoes if you don't hit right.

    Don't spread your legs while jumping, and maybe, wear a jock strap rather than shoes. It's not your feet that hurt the most.

    How about BIC lighters? Each one containes enough butane to make a nice little bomb! Carry a few on board with you...

    Yeah, and the moment you attempt to assemble them you are tackled by the other passengers and the flight attendants... just ask the shoe-bomber: his shoes were ready to go, he only needed to light them, but even that was impossible to do due to the vigilance of his seat-neighbor.

    Well, before you tell me that's what the washroom is for, think for a moment. Do you really believe that there is still a plane left without a hidden camera on the loo?

    Would you put a big "We Screw Our Customers" label on every box, assuming you didn't work at MSFT?

    No, because MSFT might sue for trademark infringment if you wrote "Microsoft" on a perfectly working product. Maybe they would tolerate it is the product was a vacuum cleaner...

    And dont bombard him, bombarding someone just ensures that they take shelter from your bombardment.

    Do bombard him! But bombard him with pro MPAA/RIAA mail, so that he gets pissed off at that viewpoint...

    1) The OpenGL renderer is not as fast as the Direct3D renderer at this time. This is not the Athlon64's fault. You can see this on 32-bit Windows, since it can use both renderers. Since this is a Linux port of the game, we're using the GL renderer on the Athlon64 at this time.

    Bill Gates is great! Bill Gates is powerful! Netfunk is his prophet. Bow to your master!
