Because a 560 is better than my 8800 GTX until I finish saving for my new rig.

I just ditched AT&T and moved to T-mobile. Managed to get an HTC HD2 for $45 through a combination of subsidized pricing and some deals. I have been much more satisfied with my T-mobile subscription. No delayed or lost SMS, no random calls not appearing and going direct to voice mail, no delayed...

I am working on migrating some old scripts that make use of CDOSYS to a servercore test install for Server 2008 R2. Unfortuantely I am having a dumb moment and can not determine if CDOSYS has been replaced in Servercore R2 (and what its replacement it) or what needs to be installed to install it.

I went ahead and ordered one to be my netflix streaming box (win7 media center integration with Netflix isnice, but browing/searching is a little limited) and DVD ISO jukebox (only needed a couple plugins for that, tested it out on my desktop and it works great). My only regret is that I...

iracing is a monthly charge, but IMO it is well worth it. After spending time in iracing other sims and games just don't feel right at all. iracing just feels right. As for comparison with real life, I drive a Solstice GXP, and the Solstice in the sim feels remarkably accurate (even if the one...

Yeah the increased wage disparity just makes sense. Now if only I could charge people for health care and other services! This game is definately focused on the "Cuba" model of government. I'll have to play through it in a manner that makes Stalin look like Ghandi just for kicks.

Just discovered this game last night on Steam. Grabbed the demo for a try before I buy, and I'm hooked. There is a lot of dry political humor in this game (which makes for some good ROFLMAO moments, if you like that type of humor). The city building is fairly simple, but the politics and econ...

I just bought a G500 and love it. This general mouse shape just fits my hand so well. I started with an MX510 (gave it to my wife), then moved to a MX518 (now used at work), have a G7 for my laptop (wish it had two side buttons), and the G500 on my primary computer. I have tried a couple other...

EDIT: Fore more detail of what I describe below: http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18027737 The key thing to remember is that there are engagement modes and firemodes. Firemode: Hold fire is "don't fire unless you are shot at" (useful for sneaking around) Fire at will...

ArmA2 is great, but definately more of an infantry sim than standard FPS. To be honest I never actually played the campaign, I just bought it for online and the mission builder. You can build some insanely complex and cool missions. Heck, you could make an indefinate mission by using the SOM...

Since no one has said it yet: iRacing.

Everyone else can delete their post now. I have posted :D :p :eek: Was worth a shot :)

I am evaluating it on 4 machines at my company. So far so good. I noticed it handles offline file syncing much better than Vista. Less performance hit for offline files by far. Any new machines will get Win7, and I'll probably move all Vista machines to 7. XP machines will remain so as they are...

Played through the demo last night. It is one of the best NFS games in a long time. Although I would have liked to see the same semi-sim approach on some open road environments with traffic (similar to NFS:PU or NFS3). For a non-sim game the physics are pretty-good. It runs fairly smoothly with...
