Re: Good introduction to Star Wars universe via games?

Both X-Wing and TIE Fighter have great stories that go along with the game. In X-Wing, it mostly comes in the book-sized manual if memory serves (or was that the hint book?) -Dark Forces (You're a battle-hardended ex-Imperial spec forces guy without magic powers. Pretty unique approach. Nice …

Here's one: In the inbox for messages, there's a sliver of color that's supposed to indicate status: "Message colours Marked message Replied to message Message from friend Message from foe" Can this be made thicker or more obnoxious? I'm having trouble telling at a glance which I've replied to out …

Re: Acer Travelmate 2440 CPU support

CPU-Z info about motherboard - Acer Garda5. To be more precise - Wistrone Garda5-1-0426. Still - can't find an info about supported CPUs... :( I would guess you should at least be able to try other Yonah CPUs. The heatsink/cooling solution may not be beefy enough for other CPUs than your Celeron …

It seems to fit okay when viewing active topics or running a search. Can it be displayed like that, or was that the style that there were complaints about? Also, did you see the complaint from the color-blind guy? Re: Have you opened your SC-55 to check the battery inside?

I've always found it funny how Nintendo acts like they have this hardline stance on emulation, yada yada, but in reality they never seem to bother suing any of the major rom sites or anything. You weren't around for the ROM site takedowns back in the day. They caused real fear of them that's …

The sad part is, when Archive.org had the TOSEC sets, Slashdot covered a story about it and no one seemed to raise a stink about intellectual property assuming it's all public domain.... If they don't have them anymore, surely that means someone raised a stink? Only Nintendo IIRC. So it's not a …

He is not talking about the archived web pages, but the software archive - The Internet Archive Software Collection . I am not aware of anything illegal that they host. Nearly all that they have are demos or shareware. They do list the license of any given download. That _may_ be true of the PC …

I hope you like the Klipsch set. I've had mine for maybe 8 years. A friend or two have them as well. Of the 2.1 PC sets I've used they are probably the best I've heard. I only wish the power switch was on a satellite instead of the sub! I usually just pull the power plug. I have the Klipsch iFi …

On a related note, I know that Skinny Puppy did a lot of stuff using the Ensoniq Mirage sampler and the Ensoniq ESQ-1 synth, both of which feature the same sound chip found in the Apple IIGS. Has anyone ever rigged up a GS to use it for really gritty sounding sampling or synthesis? I know it lacks …
