Is anyone gaming on it and have some impressions they might have time to share?

Though I appreciate the 'love in,' perhaps we could ensure that it conforms to the expectations here, and that way none of those of us who have to do stuff (the Mod Squad *cue 70s soundtrack), in fact have to do stuff. Yes we're lazy, but sometimes the Guildmaster wants us to do stuff ... really very boring ... is the humour serving its educational purpose? FLoSD.ObE

Sweet - thanks D_N!

Have you tried VLC?

Thanks again Krezack - this has been helpful for me. I am again at an upgrade cross-roads and I am debating the migration to another gaming notebook or simply finally going console (still have not). This has added to that ongoing inner monologue - thanks!

Thanks for the clear gaming context of W-7 Krezack. It is helpful - though my feedback was more in respect to the stability of the OS outside of a gaming environ. Seems that, with your critique, it sheds even more likelihood that PC gaming may in fact be facing another shift toward increasing console market penetration.

Fair enough - I meant more that XP is what ME should have been. All indications are that W-7 is what Vista should have been ...

If you can get it for a good price, I would and then wait to install after initial release. All indications are looking VERY good for the OS - what Vista should have been (reminiscent of 98->ME).

So, with the hope that something constructive might come from this, perhaps fuu, if you would please avoid the invective and actually share the technical problems you are experiencing, we might be able to help you. If not, then this discussion will likely be closed as it really does teeter a too much toward the non-constructive ...

Well, obviously the skirt in the picture Maria posted is scandalous not only by Biocensor standards but by these very boards'! :0 Could also be that pesky language filter thing ... work, work, work ...

Indeed Mustang - thanks for sharing this. It is a good reminder of the work that remains to be done.

This unfortunate issue coincided with the US Holiday - our friends @ OBS were deserving some well earned downtime! So, we in turn, got a break

A log file was way too big for the internet to handle - all fixed now ...

I second that. :'( I was so lonely. Well, next time just plague the facebook Page

sort of the same thing - just one is more permanent and has more needles

Good Lord, bro, give us a picture! Seconded. You can't tease like that and not give us something. You just...can't...? Remind me when I am back in July and everything is healed ... the last two weeks and I have been in that chair for almost 10 hours!

About 6 hours as a human canvas for an amazing piece of art ...

I am waiting to upgrade - need to see what systems carry W7 and what they can do vis-vis performance ... thanks for this as Alienware is one of the options for me!

Thread Pruned: @ Gromnir & TwinkieGorilla -> Rather than get into the 'he said, she said' paradigm, consider this a Big Green in-thread reminder to not bait one another. If your mutual energy leads to unconstructive posting, than mutuality shall also be the response you both get to experience. Play nice and then I do not have to do anything ... which is something I much prefer! If you have concerns a/o challenges, do feel free to use the PM system, rather than clog the thread ...
