January 1, 200818 yr I wanted to change mine for some time now and today I did. Here's my new one: I think therefore I am? Could be! Or is it really someone else Who only thinks he's me?

January 2, 200818 yr That is one ugly glass shader, it better be from a realtime demo or whoever made it should be pelted with pinecones. Do you have a 30", Bok? We have one at uni and its a mixed blessing.. lots of workspace but windows-handling is a mess and SLi is a must unless you want to play every game on low. DISCLAIMER: Do not take what I write seriously unless it is clearly and in no uncertain terms, declared by me to be meant in a serious and non-humoristic manner. If there is no clear indication, asume the post is written in jest. This notification is meant very seriously and its purpouse is to avoid misunderstandings and the consequences thereof. Furthermore; I can not be held accountable for anything I write on these forums since the idea of taking serious responsability for my unserious actions, is an oxymoron in itself. Important: as the following sentence contains many naughty words I warn you not to read it under any circumstances; botty, knickers, wee, erogenous zone, psychiatrist, clitoris, stockings, bosom, poetry reading, dentist, fellatio and the department of agriculture. "I suppose outright stupidity and complete lack of taste could also be considered points of view. "
January 2, 200818 yr Is that a random naked chick or a personally known naked chick? 'Cause you only get TOMBS points if they're personally known naked chicks (+/- the h4wtness modifier).

We have one at uni and its a mixed blessing.. lots of workspace but windows-handling is a mess and SLi is a must unless you want to play every game on low. I got 2 8800s so I can play every new game on high. Except for Crysis, and let me tell you that Crysis on medium looks like ass, no matter what res you play it on Current 3DMark
January 4, 200818 yr All this Windows stuff blah blah...PCLinuxOS...blah...Compiz Fusion straight from package manager...blah blah blah... Have a pile of art work that'll fill 1680x1250 on a rotation as a background. Have to get around to getting prettier icons, dock, etc one of these days.

January 5, 200818 yr Never tried Linux, what can it do better than windows? It varies with each distribution, but overall it's much faster and much more stable than any windows iteration. There's also the wide possibilities to customize the OS to, as an example, handle memory in a way that makes a certain kind of application run faster. Linux is the ideal OS for a graphics workstation, I know ILM have switched to only using linux workstations that are tailor-made to run their proprietary software packages on.

Linux is the ideal OS for a graphics workstation, I know ILM have switched to only using linux workstations that are tailor-made to run their proprietary software packages on. The Achilles Heel is usually newly released DirectX games. UT/Quake/others do concurrent releases (still waiting on UT3 Linux demo, sadly). Well none of those games are DX anyway...I don't know about say Crysis or Bioshock on Linux, I do know that NWN2 takes a little trickiness to get running in an emulator and is still pretty dodgy (and if it weren't for that, I would nuke my WinXP partition in a second). If it weren't for games, Lin is pretty much a no-brainer for general computer stuff unless you have to deal with an app that doesn't work natively or emulate. I'd say look at PCLinuxOS when the 2008 LiveCD is released or Sabayan: they're better at latest hardware, a bit of pretty, etc... Browse around http://distrowatch.com/ for exampe.

February 2, 200817 yr Birdy ftw \o/ Just because you're a bit thinner than your even fatter mum it doesn't mean you're in excellent physical shape, if you could fit through the door and view the normal people you'd notice that cheeseburger boy. Squid suck.
February 2, 200817 yr ...and let me tell you that Crysis on medium looks like ass, no matter what res you play it on And your "ass-like" medium is probably better than our high... "Geez.

Hold down "Fn" if needed then open paint and paste and save and upload to Obsidian. Upload tools below posting window in post mode. Edited February 19, 200817 yr by walkerguy Twitter | @Insevin
