Windows 7 64bit
Having just aquired a Win7 64bit system I noticed something. It seems like there are two "Program Files" folders, one that just says "Program Files" and one that says "Program Files (x86)". I assumed the X86 folder was for non-64 bit programs since thats where it put WoW so why is it that people have trouble running 32bit software when it seems the OS takes care of putting it in the right place for you?

So, being the nerd I am I couldnt wait until today and wound up calling Fed Ex and just going to get the package myself from their distribution center on Saturday. All I can say is WOW. The system is lightning fast and quiet as a whisper. The 24" display is a piece of art. I swear to god the damn thing is as big as my torso and its so clear I feel like Im looking out a window. Im still getting used to the size of this thing and its a little odd when I browse online as some sites (like this one) will stretch to fit the entire width while other sites just display in the middle of my screen with lots of unused space to the left and right sides. WoW, which wasnt too graphically intense anyway, is now set to "ULTRA" and looks beautiful. Just having this system makes me more excited for FO:NV so I can really see what this card is capable of.

Incredibly, only two Westerns in the 2000's had commas in their titles.

Making a honest lvl 300 is possible.
Im confused. If his total character level is 40 (2 + 38): What does he mean that he reached level 300?

Adding to the 'strange european things' : here in Italy we actually use the comma to separate the decimal points from the rest of the number. Some variation, but the official way of writing "1,500.25" would be 1 500,25 around here - at least according to the style manual of the Helsinki Court of Appeal, which I happen to have. Yes, I believe the official congress(?) of weights and measures determined that either 1 500,25 or 1 500.25 was the appropriate way to write. So 1,235,567.89 would be 1 235 567,89 or 1 235 567.89 and so on... Huh, very interesting. So its more a case of the US being the only ones to use a comma and decimal point much like were one of the last to still use standard vice metric. For some reason it disturbs my brain to see those spaces between the numbers, like youre looking at three seperate numbers.

Silly question. I notice that Europeans use a comma instead of a decimal point when writing numbers, why is that? Also, what do you do in the case of a number that requires a comma and a decimal point, for example: 1,500.25?

So what makes one "hispanic"? Speaking Spanish? I mean, Mexicans are hispanic but so is Spain. Brazil is hispanic even though the populous is mainly Portugese. And the Columbians, Chileans, Venesualans, etc... So is it if youre brown and speak Spanish, youre "hispanic"?- Mexifornia
I wonder whats the percentage of registered hispanic voters. Less than 5%? 1%? It would have been hysterical if this was happening in Arizona and those 200 protesting kids were raided for illegal immigration.- Teh Wireless!
Just curious but why would anyone buy a wirless LAN card for a desktop PC? Arent they slower than wired connections?- What you did today
