but when i was playing warhammer, the controls felt like they where from a rpg on the sega master system. it looked ok, but the controls and responses weren't, and it made everything feel clumsy to me.
welcome to Australia,
we have 7 people all required to say new to change the ratings system, one of them currently in a religious nut, so won't even allow a r rating, so that's not going to be changed any time soon. How does this affect you, well publishers are dumbing down games to get past the 16+ rating in Australia, i believe the last one was fallout3, but alot of major titles are doing it...
Because it's illegal to pirate software, maybe if you took it seriously there wouldn't be 5000 people out of jobs...
I know, how about we give them your phone number, and you can explain it to them?
This isn't a drug, they are modifying the cells in such a way that the virus can't attach to them. Drugs genneraly add items into a body to counter an item, this is modifying the immune system directly itself, something that hasn't be done before. the CCR5 gene apparently is why around 50-60% of the English population survived the black plague in the dark ages, when the mortally rate in people without it is over 95%.
There are a lot of deadly viruses that could be cured by this.
You don't see people walking around asking the hard questions like 'do we need to get rid of anybody', because there is profit, and everything is going well, something can trigger that talk, like the global "finance" crisis at the moment, and you'll see things like this happening, when you start looking, the bigger the company you are, the more you'll find. It's the way of business.
A couple of business owners have had to lay off some of their skilled labour, it was a last resort, because they know it's going to cost a fortune to replace them when things pick up again.
Wii may be slower downloads, but when the game is an 8th to a 10th smaller in size then the other consoles, you don't need to be that fast, in all the downloads, wii finished downloading an easy 3-4x faster then the other consoles, and in reality, that is what counts, I don't care if it's downloading slowly if it's coming across quickly, in most of the cases, it was 25-30 seconds for a full game download.
Until the cost of producing the software, is dwarfed by the income from it, it's not going to be very likely, you might fine if they did do it, they'd have to staticly compile the whole thing, and it'd make the windows and mac versions look "lite" compared to it.
It's Funny, i have had the same issue with apple update, i find it requesting to install updates for programs that weren't installed in the first place, seems like the same thing but different company...
In Australian, we have what they call preferences, if you don't put them in, the person you voted for gets to cast them for you. Alot of the smaller parties are setup to lose, so they can throw 3-4% of the vote to one of the two big parties. You can either out a 1 in a box, or put 1-50 on the vote form...
I Totally Agree, now the guy that replaced him is doing a great job, i can't remember his name, that is how much he has done so far.
About the only thing i might accept been blamed on gates is the fall of windows, just like i bet any missteps of apple will be blamed on jobs leaving, instead of his replacements...
wow, 75% of $0 is umm... $0... I'd rather 75% of $400+ (here in Australia). Linux has been around for a long time, if it's anything, it's going to be the small mobile items that helping lower it's install base.
to be a little serious here, i think you are more right then you realize, do you think computer shops are going to be more or less likely to sell an OS, that they know will have to come back at some stage to get "cleaned" up?
have to agree, since i upgraded to firefox 3, i've been having serious issues, like Firefox using 350megs of ram while only having one page loaded (no tabs!)

They Take advantage of the system either way.

It's all smoke and mirrors so that nobody relizes the ruling party is doing nothing real, and when they do, it's putting us into a bigger hole
Look on the bright side, Now you have a reason to swap to Linux or Mac OS and use their extensive gaming libraries for your entertainment purposes.

then why don't they ever die, cause they keep doing it over and over again..
