Unfortunately, it's to a Panthers game.
I'm going to take some duct tape and cover over the name and x-out the number of my Peppers jersey.

This is my goty. It's just insane. I loved Fallout 3, oblivion was good, almost GREAT, but the gates made it meh. Morrowind was awesome sauce. But this regardless of the quirks of the engine, is insanely addictlivey fun. It truly brings the old school falllout feel of the storyline and the dialogue of the old games.

I recently bought a 55" Samsung LED-LCD TV. I had it for a week before I was fed up with the poor viewing angles and lack of deep blacks. I swapped it for a 58" Samsung plasma (1.4" thick!) and I couldn't be happier. Also, the plasma was cheaper, to boot.
55" LED-LCD TV I started with:
Samsung UN55C6800 55-Inch 1080p 120 Hz LED HDTV
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0036WT4JC/ref=oss_product
58" plasma TV I switched it out for:
Samsung PN58C6500 58-Inch 1080p Plasma HDTV
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0036WT406/ref=oss_product
TL:DR LCD TVs suck, plasma kicks ass!

So i recently made a slightly dumb move
I bought a 768 MB card when I thought I was getting a 1 GB card (oops). its not returnable. see http://www.shacknews.com/laryn.x?id=24436597
I think it'll be just fine, BUT i wanted to ask - if you SLI video cards, do you need to have the exact same type of video card to SLI it with? E.g. could i get a different brand of a GT 460 and would SLI work properly?
I figure its best to get a duplicate card, but I'm curious, esp since there are some 768 non superclocked for $110.

Apparently the skillbooks don't actually display the fact that they increase your skills. I just realized this after finding the Big Book of Science and recognizing it from FO3. I've ignored several skillbooks because it doesn't say anywhere what bonus they give you, I just thought they were more vendortrash.

Nice. Wishing I have bought on PC now.
Is the cert process on 360 just hand waving? It sure as hell didn't prevent them from releasing the game.

I haven't tried Kinect, but the Move I think might be better in the long run. Yes, it is just a more responsive Wiimote, but I think they are using it in the more hardcore market, the people who actually play their system. When it was unveiled and E3, they immediately started showing games like Heavy Rain with it. Microsoft's technology may be cool but, I think, they are trying to get into a market that Nintendo already has a 4 year head-start on them.

I do most of my work at the office now, so it's time I get rid of my 30" Dells.
I'm not totally sure how to ship this stuff, but if anyone wants them, I'm selling them for $700 each + shipping, or both for $1250 + shipping. They're a couple years old, but no cosmetic issues and work great. Comes with power/dvi-dual cables.
Also got a macbook pro (aluminum, 2.2 GHz core 2 duo (from late '07), 2 GB RAM, GeForce card, 15", 250 GB HD) that i want to part ways with for $500 if anyone's interested (plus shipping).
Send me a PM if you're interested.
