  1. Haha... you know, its actually entertaining to hear anyone say that Vista is any improvement on XP. I go to Digipen, which is a major programming college, and, as part of a deal with Microsoft, we get some of their software over a thing called MSDNAA (is an education alliance deal). Believe it or not, they recently added Vista professional to the package, and some of the students and faculty have Vista currently installed on their machines. The short version: Vista is a complete piece of crap. The end user will probably like Vista, simply because it is pretty and it will (seem to) do the simple stuff that they want to do pretty well. On a deeper level, though, Vista simply fails. In many ways, our students have likened restoring XP on their machines to upgrading Vista to XP. Besides the obvious problems, such as the whole content protection debacle (short side note: I didn't know that, thanks to some millennium law passed, its technically illegal to watch DVD's on a Linux machine. Look it up if you have the chance), Vista has numerous holes that simply make it unreliable (one such hole, its seeming inability to effectively network to XP computers, screwed a team project we had this weekend), and sadly, they probably won't be fixed for a couple of service packs. Take it from people with experience. Don't get Vista. --Jack Kieser
  2. Ok, I hate to bitch, but I do cause I care. When, oh when, will this be released (or rather, is there a projected release date)? Still planning on April 22 (the diamond / pearl date)? --Jack Kieser
  3. After playing that game for so long, my friends can now tell when I think a song is good by watching my hands. If they can see me tapping out an EBA-style pattern, they know I must like the song.
  4. I'm not gonna lie; when Phoenix Wright first came out, I was so into it that I found a rip of the Overtaken! theme and put it on my phone. Whenever anyone would say something contradictory, I would pull out my phone, play the song, and start the courtroom drama. Needless to say, I got some weird looks, but it was totally worth it. --Jack Kieser
  5. Ok, so I go to Digipen (Nintendo's college for gaming), and you could say a few of us have played TP quite a bit. The positions of some places in TP Hyrule have been kind of confusing for us, too, but there might be an explanation to it all without the addition of an extra game anywhere.
