PoLiX

True. My g/f's 2yr old laptop loads XP faster than my brand new one loads vista.

Reading on Tom's Hardware, it sounds like XP out performs it by an incredible amount, dissapointing as they say. Even when they 2xed the ram, it made no major effects, as I was thinking of doing. I use to have 2.5gb of ram w/ a slower processor, and a very old agp video card, and got better fps in games than I am on this brand new computer, so I fully agree w/ them. I think I'm going to download and burn all my drivers, and then do a file back up and wipe this thing for xp tomorrow.

Those who have used both a good amount, not just say it sucks and haven't tried it or used it as a live enviroment for a good amount of time... Which would you say seems to be a better go? I've had vista for some time on my laptop, but I'm just tired of the high amount of resources Vista uses... I have 2gbs of ram, and barely enough to spare for my video card, and can't play any game but continuum... Which is kind of sad imho. I've debated getting 2 2gb sticks of ram to replace the 1gb sticks in this laptop, but debating if just going XP is more worth it. Not really concerned about DX10, or anything else "Vista only", and HP has all the XP drivers for my laptop, so no worries there. mmm...

turn its starting bounty up is the easiest way I can remember right now.

Heya Snrrrub, long time no see. I think I may still have snrrrub.sscentral.com backed up somewhere if you need anything from that I can look around.

MM, was 1 of the 2000-3000 names syrus deleted bout a yr or 2 ago, as it was one of the ones I remember auto-registering.

Haha, true that. LVZ placing use to be such a !@#$%^&*. I'm thinkin bout it, like I said, I've always wanted to goto Europe, but my 1st trip is to Minnesota, hah. Never been east of the rockies (never had reason), just all up and down here on the US/Canada west coast, so that is step 1 to making it to Europe. Sweet on the house bro, very sweet. Been lookin myself, need to find one to buy, or atleast rent/lease, as having dogs in an apt sucks, always feel bad for them not having much room to run.

Kinda hard when it was just news yesterday...

http://www.news.com/Comcast-vs.-BitTorrent...l?tag=nefd.lede Whas has confused me about this hole thing as I've seen it develop, is why they're fighting to keep people from file-sharing, yet when someone tries to do something about it, they're on their !@#$%^&* about invading someone's internet rights... do these guys just need something to !@#$%^&* about and someone to prosecute so they can keep their comfy jobs or what?

One of the few things I've been watching google for lately, and now the race is finally on... This is seriously going to begin pushing new technology, and push us into the future of space exploration if people outside NASA begin exploring the regions of space. http://www.news.com/Google-lunar-challenge...?tag=ne.fd.mnbc

http://www.crn.com/security/206801430 I think this could be very useful. I've seen one too many sites go down lately, and no doubt they'd wished they've had something like this beforehand.

http://www.fool.com/investing/value/2008/0...ne-cabinet.aspx mmm... dunno how this plans to work, but could be scary if someone could access it outside of you or doctors.

Good, Good. You still runnin narchs? Hook a bro up w/ a squad, lol... How's !@#$%^&* in your world? And on the subject, I'd use DCME. I've given them a lot of support here as they've done more than anyone else. So guess favoritism you could say.

Sony never had a pull on us much though. Even after cosmic rift came out, we we're seeing some of our highest pops since losing VIE. This on the other hand, may find its way into our community, as a lot of players also play xbox live and have talked about getting continuum on there since this new project of Microsofts's.

That is just like the image we protrayed of Saddam Hussein. There is a do!@#$%^&*entry on him called "Uncle Saddam", watch it sometime. It is really interesting to learn how much of what his country did that was bad, was his family, and they did it secretly behind his back. He didn't go crazy til he found out and they tried to kill him. Killed off bunch of his family, locked his wife and brother-in-law away, and yeah, big mess. Really interesting to watch though, cause it gives you a whole different opinion of him. He wanted to always be clean and good looking, so that his people would be seen that way, as their leader is clean and well kept, he believed they'd be seen the same. Always washed his hands before and after shaking people's hands, etc. I've heard of one the same about Castro and Putin, and been trying to find them, as I always find it interesting to see the story outside of what the media shows/protrays to us.

Mmm... always knew we'd eventually be redone by someone with bigger connections.

Sup ana.

Wireless router? It is either your router or modem, as the ploss is local. That or someone on your line is downloading, connection to wireless is weak, etc.

One of the strongest leaders of the 20th century imho.

Wow... Kind of eye opening, I like it. Will read the rest when I get home from work... back to work I go speaking of that...

And what sort of deal could you cut an old friend?

yep, seems to have fixed it. Haven't had a lot of time to play with it yet, so thanks for the help.

Just spent past few hrs doing some content work, and planning. Probably going to combine some sections just to, well, clean things up. Especially since Tips and Tricks might as well be part of the players guide and stuff. Also gives room for other content people are buggin me for. And the front page will only be the latest news entry + some key headers + quick links to continuum downloads. News will be a seperate section of the site, so as not to clutter the 1st page a person comes to. Just something I've been constantly debating, and feel is best. Today was Day 8... 15 to go til March 2nd, and my next day off... Which sadly, will be spent on sscentral, not much of a day off, lol. I will be fixing the counter on the frontpage to a bit further out But we're almos there nonetheless, thanks to trained and freakmonger. I will also begin letting others in to help soon, after I do some cleaning, fixing, and add some more css for making things they're working on easier/cleaner/w3c compliant.
