I'm somewhat sceptical to that claim... but I've become seriosuly interested!
Now, I am very interested, as this is what I need to finally ditch windows, but Cedega seems to be buy before you try, and me being a Linux-newbie (n00b, noob, newb, nub), I fear incompability and frustration to get things to work.
Does anyone non-AC have input on Cedega or wine fps and ease of use?
Sid: It's with great excitement I'm looking forward to playing Civ 4. But when/if I buy it, will I still have to DL a no-CD fix?

Opera Free as in Beer

· Score: 2, Informative
If you want to just download, install and surf, Opera is for you.
Opera is not as modificapable as FF, but it's also set up to be ok for the most users.
On the over hand, if you're craveful you'll most likely prefer FF. E.g. I love that FF comes without Flash pre-installed. What do I want those comercials for? =)
When I logged on on Battle.Net to play a WC3 game I did: Select my preferred gametype, start search for a game. Wait approx 2s, rarely up to a minute. Then play.
In WoW I do: run to either the correct NPC in Orgrimmar or run to the BG instance for joinung up a queue. If I chose WSG then wait minimum 2s, but often several minutes in prime time up to forever. If I chose AV then wait 'til I grow mossbeard.
The BG queuesystem is no fun; I want to sign up and play; not sign up and wait.
So, why don't you have a intra-server queue? I don't care much if the other players don't come from my own server. I just want to play.
I reconn trade will have to be disabled, or allow only playermade items like food, drink, HealthStone and perhaps potions?

Why hope? Why don't you do something about it instead?:)
Send her Yoper / Ubuntu live/install CDs. Documentation on how to program in C or C++ (she seems to be going for application development, I do not know what'd be best for her).
That part isn't informative; but the browser.cache.memory.capacity thing was indeed so (if it works as it's claimed).
There's no "Part of this was quite informative, but the submitter of this posts made a fool of himself with some obvious, dead-wrong claims"-moderation.
I'm willing to bet a Wine-ed Quake IV will run with significant less frames...
But perhaps it's be good enough with good computers / resourcefriendly games:)
Hey.. on a sidenote; I've never succeeded in making the best game ever Master of Orion II run multiplayer (IPX) under XP. (it crashes after a few turns). hmm.. have anyone succeeded with MoO2 & Wine?? =)
Please, I'm so much in need I'm willing to kiss your arse... or go to the wastedump and get some MoO2-compliant computers:(

Almost twice the FPS?

I got nVidia card 6800LE, in case that matters.
Is that a L1 or L2 cache? o.O
Your karma ^_^
Mayhap his story is not quite true?
Maybe the cat was not comming for him?
Maybe he felt guilty about shooting a rare animal wich were no threat to him?
AFAIK no puma would attack a human, unless very hungry or threatened? Tigers and lions may, though?

Thanks for the reply.
BTW can you / anyone rephrase my post, please? I'm not so good with words or especially structure.
Maybe true, but Flame is also Flamebait.
( Because there's always two sides; your opposing side will be baited to your flame and flame back, less they can constrain themselves. )
I wonder why the BG-queue is intra-server?

In Norway we have an Enviroment Tax wich I think the sellers are forced to pay. Wich they then pass on to customers, of course.

Works quite well

I got the point; but I'd like you to go on!
But if the nodes are wellknown, can't China get the IP for the nodes, and search its internettraffic for any matches?
