Hi Dallas,
Oh, that is for sure. You don't really know how much better a little
speed boost will make in every day tasks such as saving files,
starting programs, or opening files until you experience it
first-hand.
For example, I do a lot of work with audio such as editing sounds and
music and
Hi Dark,
Sigh...You are probably right about the fact that we have said all
that can be said on this subject. I feel like I'm in a boxing match
where neither person has made any impact on the other and all we are
doing is going round after round not getting anywhere.
However, before I close this
well, I think people will start upgrading to windows7 and windows8 when
xp support dies next year and their xp machines start getting infected
with viruses and having major security flaws. and upgrading isn't really
that hard or expensive. you can get a new dell latitude e4310 with

Hi Tom,
Your discussion of VB6 was one of the best explanations of the situation I’ve
seen on this list.
We’re in the process of rewriting old titles to use the new Engine. The old ESP
Softworks titles were all VB6. This is going to be an arduous transition, but
we’ll get there, and the games
hi. personally, I think it's time that the blind gaming community did
what most of the real gaming industry did a while back. bring out a
game, and say here you go, here are the requirements. its up to you
how you deal with that. if a game dev brings out a game that takes
advantage of newer
Hi Tom.
to be honest I don't agree with you about microsoft simply because of the
money involved. on xp I can run programs for dos written in qbasic, C and
goodness knows what from 20 years ago. That is a huge corpus of material. Up
to xp microsoft had a care for all that legacy support
Dark,
I'd just like to point out some misinformation in this post, and some
misunderstandings about Mac and iOS.
First, you said that iOS apps never have compatibility issues with iOS
upgrades. This is definitely not the case. Several apps, including
Solara (to bring this somewhat back to games)
Hi Alex,
Just adding a bit to your comments.
Apple’s aggressive strategy regarding software upgrades tends to keep their
platforms more robust and stable, but comes at the cost of some backward
compatibility.
That said, though, Apple has also made it extremely easy for developers to keep
Hi,
Yes, I would definitely agree that Apple has always handled these
transitions very well, much better than Microsoft.
I think one reason for this is MS's large number of Enterprise
customers. Enterprises tend to migrate to newer technologies extremely
slowly, and I think this is holding MS
hi, it's not only that, but simply because apple's user base is
actually nothing, when it comes to a number situation. they have all
of about 50 to 70 million users on mac, not all of which are up to
date, but more then not. then Microsoft, has over 1.5 billion! users
in windows. they have more
Well Dallas, your supposition doesn’t hold up to much scrutiny, since Apple
has, and does, major transitions on iOS all the time, and there are somewhere
in the neighborhood of 500 to 700 million iOS devices in use.
A much more key difference is that, with Apple products, the hardware and
Just an interesting tidbit on this discussion.
Marco Arment, original developer of Tumblr, InstaaPaper, and the Magazine, has
been doing some research today regarding the release of the Mac Pros and how
they compare to PC’s of similar spec.
His comparisons are with the $3999 Mac Pro.

I definitely agree with your points. As far as USA Games is concerned
we aren't going out of our way to drop support for XP, but neither are

I've noticed a trend with Microsoft operating systems. Windows 3.1 was
terrible, the next version fixed a lot of the problems but had problems of
it's own, which were fixed in the next version that had bugs of it's own,
and so it continues even today. Remember Windows ME? Rushed onto the
Hi, all.
I've visited

and have seen several listings for Harry Potter-themed muds. However, none of
them seems workable. When I try to log onto any of them, I get a blank screen.
So, can anyone recommend a good Harry Potter mud? If so, can you provide the

is it possible to play muds that or not listed in vip mud

Dear all,
I would like to express the fact that Windows 8 is not all that bad.
This is due to a couple updates (I am referring of course to Windows
8.1.) Windows 8 has some really awesome controls. However, you must
get used to the fact that there is now a new way the start menu
functions. For

I agree here as well. I also listen to professional wrestling, and there is
wrestling involved. I once asked my cousin what the RKO was like, and he put
the move on me, but didn't do it full force.

Hi Dark,
I think show wrestling is an accurate description. Obviously,, there
is a lot of wrestling involved such as various grapples, submission
holds, and technical throws, but unlike in Olympic wrestling the WWE,
TNA, etc employ a lot of theatrical stunts such as attacking people
with chairs,
Hi Teresa,
Exactly. The big companies like the WWE don't even pretend to treat
wrestling as an actual sport or claim that the competitions are real.
They call pro wrestling sports entertainment which basically
emphasizes the fact it is entertainment like a sport but is not really
a sport the way
