Alright, we now have a guild, Orion, set up on Hilsbury. At the moment, we're only six or seven men strong, but that will change in the future. If there are any of you who would like an invite, post in this thread or send a letter to Modica through the mail system.
I've heard some people are having issues with the game crashing, which is normal. Part of this can be due to your graphics settings, and there are several guides out there that speak of what you can do to improve the smoothness and the performance of the game.

Just two things i hate on Firefox.
1) Once you click on a link and the browser starts loading, it ignores any middle-clicks (to open other links that might be on that page) - This happens a lot with me, on Google.
2) Bookmarks search - man i would kill to be able to search for folder names!! Before i add a new bookmark, i always try to see which folder its best for it (i separate my bookmarks on different folders/categories). Without folder search, its a pita.

IGN says that it comes out on June 30, 2007 in the UK, and Q2, 2007 in the US.
So...does that mean Q2 2007 is BEFORE June 30, 2007?
Been playing Diablo, and fuckall...I am really wanting Hellgate now.

I am not a big fan of football, but I will probably watch it at home on my 57" HDTV. My wife wants to go to he Moms!
Why on earth would I want to go to her Mom's house to "A Super Bowl Party" and try and watch it on a 32" SDTV that is hooked up via coaxial cable!

How about the implication that you need surgery to upgrade?
Well, certainly we've done a better job letting you upgrade on the hardware than our competitors have done. You can choose to buy a new machine, or you can choose to do an upgrade. And I don't know why [Apple is] acting like it’s superior. I don't even get it. What are they trying to say? Does honesty matter in these things, or if you're really cool, that means you get to be a lying person whenever you feel like it? There's not even the slightest shred of truth to it.

I think I'm going to attempt tomatoes this year. I don't know how many, or what kinds, but I want to be able to can a bunch of romas, etc. for red sauce and then have some nice big beefsteaks or summat for fresh use.
I've also ordered a bunch of seeds; some romaine, various herbs, etc. We'll see how it goes. I've ALSO got to dig out 400 sq. ft. down 3ft deep for grape vines next year. That'll be awful. But I'll be able to make my own wine in three or four years :D

come drink with us since mikecyb is in town. Horse Brass at 7 PM. I'd tell you to look for the haggard looking hobo but that would probably describe half the people in there tonight. I guess you can look for filtersweep. He looks like a hippy who sold out and got a job and became a Abercrombie & Fitch consumer whore.

Is that free laptop thing that's been going around any good for running Windows programs? Need it to be fairly easy to use.
Is that Dell Inspiron 1501 for $549 (through Dell small business) any good? I know the specs aren't great, but it should be good enough. Would it be better to get it from Costco ($800) for the warranty?

Should I replace it, or give it a try? I don't want to toast the board.
Also, a general question that I should know the answer to. On the system panel connectors (HDD led, PW switch etc), white/green, which is ground? I thought all the little labels should face the same direction but that doesn't seem right, because then the white/black cable has white for ground.
Normally I just trial and error it, but I figure I might as well actually learn something. Since I've only been doing this for about 10 years now, ha.
