And I never mentionned Acrobat in my post I only said PDF (which means Portable Document Format if I recall). Just because AC doesn't know the difference between Acrobat and PDF doesn't mean I don't.
Who the hell would install Acrobat on a Mac anyway? The OS supports PDFs directly by itself!
I remember reading about people who announced the "death of paper" because of computers. Everyone will read stuff on their displays and we will rarely, if ever, print things on paper anymore.
I don't know about you, but I never bought as much paper in my life since I bought my laser printer. So much for the "death of paper".
I also recall someone claiming the death of the keyboard when the mouse and GUIs were introduced...
Rainbow Six isn't in the same category as Wolf-3D/Quake/Doom/Unreal.
But let's be honest: most of the "big sellers" games are usually the same games over and over again. How many games are almost the same as Rainbow Six, for example?
I guess my complaint is that companies don't want to take risks these days, though sometimes they surprise us with things like Katamari Damacy, Locco Rocco and Pikmin.
I've played a lot of games after Wolf-3D, of course. That was merely a comparison that almost all FPS are copies of it, even though they add more things and look a lot better, they still basically are the same game (run around and shoot stuff). Gets tired after 20 years.
I should have specified "console hardware gamers".
Almost all the Xbox 360/PS3 owners I meet only seem to be interested in the number of polygons his console can push to its brand new 50" plasma TV. And for a demo they show me games that play almost the same as games from 20 years ago, except they look sharper and with more details.
You can only play so much Wolfeinstein 3D before getting bored.

All you need is an active USB extension cable. Shouldn't be worth more than 15-20$.
Share and enjoy! .. sounds a bit sick when taken within the context of the parent's request.

Ah, so they run Novell, not Linux. /duck

I thought the main goal of PDF was a printable document format so that we wouldn't have to rely on browser HTML printing or Microsoft Word documents.
So, the parent AC is Bender?
What you remember is probably about MEGA Bloks, the Montreal company.
I can view PDFs directly in Safari, does that mean PDFs are browser-based documents?
And to hell with purple people!

That sounds strange if you ask me. I want "higher quality" things, not "lower quality".
Shouldn't that be "athletes are at risk for low performance if the air quality cannot be brought up to acceptable levels"?
Dude that's just stupid. They should be using recycled electrons.
It's the other way around. You'll receive a shipping box so you can mail yourself to your new location.
Given what I've read so far, however, you can expect to travel in luxury aboard a whole shipping container.
Still, do they need to put them in foam-padded boxes? And don't they have thinner and smaller boxes?
Never used one myself, but here's the link anyway:

I can understand that all the sheets are packaged individually and each sheet package is packaged into a bigger container.
What I can't understand is why they are packaging 2-3 sheets of paper in a foam-padded box instead of a flat envelope.

As far as webcams go these days, if it's not UVC it's not worth buying. And OS X supports UVC webcams out of the box.

... and Diablo III.
note to self: buy more logitech mouses next time they're on sale.

Indeed, the Wii is the only console I'd consider for FPS games, as long as the controls are as accurate and easy as the ones in Metroid Prime 3.
