    Do you really need SP2?

    There is absolutely NO reason for a consumer level user not to install SP2, and anyone who advocates not installing SP2 is doing a disservace to anyone listening to them. There may be very narrow business needs that have special applications that can't handle SP2 for some reason... but in...

    Appeal for advice regarding laptops

    If you intend to do a lot of typing on your laptop, you want an IBM (Lenovo now I guess) Thinkpad. The T42 laptops are astoundingly good, with great keyboards, and the long battery life you can expect from a centrino system... They have several different ways to expand the battery life as...

    Tim Sweeney Interview -- Level Design, technology and more!

    Rev, your posts have been arrogant and condescending... if you're not interested, then shut the hell up and read somewhere else. Others of us did find the responses an interesting, if not earth-shattering read.

    MS protective services any good?

    If you got that kind of infection from behind your router, then your router's firewall is very improperly configured. I'd only expect that kind of infection to a completely unpatched systems on a system with no firewall at all and a highspeed inet connection. Your point still stands, but I'd...

    Mozilla Messaging

    I agree with the Miranda recommendation. I've been using Miranda since it was in its infancy and have always liked it. If the Mozilla group were to build an IM program, it couldn't be much better than Miranda.

    Posts being deleted?

    Ok, well thanks for telling me what happened at least. At first I thought I was going slightly bonkers, because I was sure I had made a post, I just couldn't remember where it was. :)

    Innovation: Rewarded. . .and not so much.

    Its implementation was. which was my point if you read what I wrote. ATI did not invent Npatches, but it was certainly their innovation to implement it in hardware the way they did, and implement it in such a way that it was useable by developers, and could be experienced by end-users in its...
