| Partly agree. I don't think graphics is that hugely important and that is not why the consoles are limiting. It has more to do with the limited amount of RAM and the controls on the consoles.
Let us not BS ourselves, it is because of money they move this to consoles as well, so there's likely to be some mainstreaming going on, meaning more for the lowest common denominator. Flag this | Edit this post |

| At this time it would be difficult to make those changes but I don't doubt that they are currently already working on the next version.
As an example avoided the poor x2900xt and got a 3870 instead. Nvidia's new line as well as Ati's x2900xt would've forced me to buy a new PSU too...so it would've been costly and more difficult to quietly cool down. Flag this | Edit this post |

| Dualboot here on a fast C2D machine with 4GB RAM and latest WD 640GB drive and Vista is clearly slower in many applications.
Drivers for XP are more mature and have more features.
Superprefetch is kind of nice though. Flag this | Edit this post |

| How do you know there's a hell? Even Reagan understood in the end that a more neutral policy in the middle-east could've saved plenty of (American) lives. Why let the mistakes from the past continue?
Nixon too understood in the end that profit needs to be taken out of warfare or there will never be lasting peace, the only thing that really works.
One could also argue that it is cowardly to drop bombs from great hights, occupy countries with really non-existant militaries. Americans had no business being in 'Nam and neither did the French either.
As for taxes, Bush has raised them more than almost anyone (he actually has loaned more money than all previous presidents combined before him), he just puts in the creditcard. Another dumb idea which will result in more painful problems later. Flag this | Edit this post |

| The world and reality disagrees.
Enough PNAC imperialism. You cannot afford it, and presidents serve to protect the constitution and not butcher it. You know, gay bashing is popular among those fundamentalists in the middle-east. How are those theocracies working out?
And you do not really bother with gays if they are:
1. Republicans (Sullivan/Gannon/Rice?/Foley/Haggard/Craig...)
2. Lesbians (this is where gay bashers are often such hypocrits)
Here's the thing. Do you want freedom for all or freedom for some? Show some courage. Do not let religious nonsense guide laws, it seldom works out well, because faith based are faith based because they lack support by reality.
People do not get tall by hanging around tall people, it's the same with sexuality. Flag this | Edit this post |

| Clinton is the most investigated US politician, the research itself had more funding than the 9/11 (c)ommission and even today we hear about it.
The reasons why republicans might've been getting more coverage is:
1. They are constantly gay bashing (for voting/religilous reasons)
2. They have mostly been in power and vote against gay rights
3. Many of them have been caught in homosexual acts
4. Republicans were supposed to bring back dignity to the whitehouse Flag this | Edit this post |

| This format war is really lame, reminds me of SACD vs DVD-A where the latter should've won without a struggle and become an industry standard (with some changes though).
I'm tired of the lack of space on normal DVD-R's. It's time to move on. Flag this | Edit this post |
