That breakquest game is great...I downloaded it and ended up picking up the full version. Though it may not be for every one. popcap.com has some decent little goof off games too...zuma there is pretty fun. Not my cup of tea most days (games like zuma and breakquest that is) but they're nice when I'm sick of or don't have the time to play UT or HL2.
That's exactly what I see out there. The same thing with most music downloaders, they're not selling it, they're not listening to most of it...it's just the archival as hobby for a lot of them. I think that's an excellent way of phraseing it 5n3ak3rp1mp.
yeah...I use windows for gaming and internet mostly...I recently installed fedora core 3 just to see how linux has changed over the years (last install of linux was some version of gentoo which was nice but a big pain to spend 3 days compiling everything, and before that it was something like redhat 5). Fedora core 3 was the most painless linux installation ever. Firefox, openoffice, games, and email to name a few keypoints were all available about 25 minutes from the time i stuffed the dvd in the drive. desktop worked, pretty login screen and all sorts of other goodies. Only thing i had to do was install a video player and nvidia drivers. I've started using linux almost exclusively since installing fc3 except when i feel like playing 3d pc games (ut2k4 runs under linux well enough for a bot match but it looks nicer and runs faster with dx9)
See...some of us are informed. Some of us are very displeased with the direction of things. I wish desperately I could move elsewhere but lack the capital to do so at this time. The last figures I heard on the election put turnout at 60% with those numbers split 51 to 48 percent. I think that plenty of people in the states are completely uninformed though. And I'm amongst a vast number of people who can't believe bush was re-elected. I voted for kerry and really didn't like the man or anything he had to say at all. I've come to the point of thinking there is no hope.
