    i have the same style argument towards people that say that life didn't evolve over millions of years but instead insist that everything was created in 7 days and that that is how it all is..

    my quesion is ... if god can create anything .. why did it take 7 days.. why not one? why not 365*millions ... and then i look at then and ask who are they to say that gods day is our day? and they just stare at me and blow me off and go on talking about how i am brain washed..

    personaly if someone is going to brain wish me .. please use bleach next time so i don't have to deal with the rest of the people in this small rock.

    I know the codebase is diffrent.. but for the later games that could have been compiled to work on multi acr's if they had thought about it.. what do they do about the whole signed code on the 360..

    i don't have a 360 so i don't know how it works exactly but if you have to download and update for your games to work.. they can't be too small and would eat the hdd's space - i don't know exactly but i think it would have been better for them to just have a straight generic emulater

  13. Re:Catch 22 on Just Let Me Play! · · Score: 1

    I love playing bf2 but it has issues with the unlocks.. i am a good player but i am not the best.

    sure all the basic weapons are available at the start and the first couple of unlocks are easy to get but then they jump from 8000 points to 20000 points.. i am sorry i have had the game almost a year now and i have just over 5000 points because well i have about 60 hours of play time total (between work and wife i don't have much time)

    the fact that you can't test the weapons befor you use the unlock annoys me.. and the fact that for the people that have purchased BF2:SF they get extra unlock options that they can use aginst me - something i don't have the option for because i didn't pay for it.. the sad part is my game could do it because if i kill them and take their kit, there i am holding a gun that doesn't exist in my game - if i pay for the game and it has the content i should have the option to use it.. i should have to have 1000's of points and 100's of hours of play time of the same thing over and over to get access to it.. it is one thing if you get an unlock for getting a kill with each type of gun or something like that but the fact that to get all the normal weapons unlocked you need something like 50000 points and a bunch of badges (which they havn't officaly released what is required to get them - bf2s.com has some info) is well.. damn annoying

    Personaly i am pleased with MS's mdi format that isused for the document scanning and can be printed to but it is only avaliable to Office XP and up

    infact you can only install it if you have Office XP or later as it is only provided on the CD.

    i find that it makes better files that are smaller and the built in OCR is pretty nice and when being printed to it handels alot of the funky objects people put in their documents alot better (constistly better) than Adobe Distiller

    i wouldn't mind using them more offten but they would need to open up the mdi format and allow anyone to make/view them (atleast view them) for it to take hold an compete with pdf

  20. Re:Quad machines... on 4x4 Chips, Opening AMD's Architecture · · Score: 2, Interesting

    We have had this ability in highend servers for a long while (the ability to add diffrent types of chips and 3rd party stuff) it is known as a backplane

    the problem is that they are not like AMD's HyperTransport bus (which makes this really neat) - but wouldn't it be better all around if we moved towards more backplane styles for higher end stuff?

    the highest spec backplane i remember was a 64bit 66Mhz PCI bus.. what if we where to move that to PCIe with a massive amount of Lanes.. or have AMD open up their Hyper transport bus but for more than just proccessing units.

    the idea of the backplane is that say you have 20 slots you can plug what ever you want into them weather it is a raid/net/cpu/secondary proccessing core card in and they all can talk to each other at the same speed - the bus speed.

    this isn't high preformace anymore compared to most things because of the limitations of a norma PCI bus.

    just an idea.. i would like to see a move towards this in the future.. but i guess at the rate they keep recreating and altering standards .. getting them to use a standard backplane bus would be harder than declawing a cat with your teeth..

    Just a thought (not bashing this - i like the idea.. i just wish they would truly step into the highend server market and take it to another level)

    and if you know something that i don't about upcoming backplanes or their evolution pelase reply
