  11. Re:Nostalgia in out old age on Pac Man Nostalgia Helps Enhance Memory? · · Score: 0

    When we get so old, we won't remeber PacMan anyway, and oldschool games would be those Doom III and Half-Life 2 with crappy graphics :)

  12. Re:VB & Delphi on Removing Software Complexity · · Score: 0

    I use Delphi, and must say that you need some sort of programming skills, unless you are writing a Hello World program, then you just drop a label and change its caption to Hello World, hit run and that's all, But complex programs are still complex.

    when cards get fast enough to do 60+fps, DoomIII will be obsolete :p

  25. Re:From the horse's mouth on Big Mac Benchmark Drops to 7.4 TFlops · · Score: 0

    I remember reading something about the supercomputers, and IIRC, there's some value above which any computer would be considerd a "supercomputer". This value is regulary updated, so that regular computers don't get this title. Also, there's some kind of restriction on export of supercomputers, and this helps avoid blocking normal PC.
