JaKiri 13 Posted December 14, 2004 Share Posted December 14, 2004 unreals engine is so much better than deus ex IMO. Deus Ex runs on the Unreal Engine. Link to post Share on other sites

Guest lumpy_chunk Posted January 16, 2005 Share Posted January 16, 2005 sometimes you can keep it clean by puting stuff in a folder unlike my brother,Steven his desk top is full of unneded stuff like,a file called "chippy.wav" well that is all or not. Link to post Share on other sites

Rasori 15 Posted January 16, 2005 Share Posted January 16, 2005 JaKiri, what's wrong with Punkbuster? Unless you're a hacker, it doesn't do anything bad. Link to post Share on other sites

Sayonara 675 Posted January 16, 2005 Share Posted January 16, 2005 The next incarnation of Windows OS. Please try to use google instead of hijacking threads with posts that begin "wtf is..." Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bkronbergs Posted January 16, 2005 Share Posted January 16, 2005 well said sayonara, and SURELY everyone knows that the next microsoft OS release is codenamed longhorn!! anyway, what do people think of the look of it? Link to post Share on other sites
Sayonara 675 Posted January 16, 2005 Share Posted January 16, 2005 I think it was very mean of them not to make XP that shiny. Apparently Longhorn will require a gfx card that's better than entry-level, so as far as our pretty desktops go it might not have the impact we'd expect for a while (although this will just help drive Moore's Law in the end, so who cares?) http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=05/01/13/2351247&tid=201 Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bkronbergs Posted January 16, 2005 Share Posted January 16, 2005 good point sayonara, but by the time Longhorn is released properley, EVERYONE will have the right specs, as computers just wont be sold with the wrong ones, Microsoft I am sure would tip the manufacturers, cos they will want everyone who can use it on Longhorn. But Apple's Tiger release this year I am awaiting eagerly! Link to post Share on other sites
Sayonara 675 Posted January 16, 2005 Share Posted January 16, 2005 I was going to say "don't overlook the people who buy the components and build their own", but of course most people in that category spend as much as they can on gfx cards. A lot of package retailers like Tiny, PC World etc sell sub-standard components, and it's their customers who will be worst off. Link to post Share on other sites
ecoli 372 Posted January 16, 2005 Share Posted January 16, 2005 ecoli's desktop looks like win98 with office 2000 Windows ME with office 2000, actually. Winodws Longhorn!!!. What a stupid name!!! Link to post Share on other sites
budullewraagh 10 Posted January 16, 2005 Share Posted January 16, 2005 um, "bill gates satan inc" wtf man? Link to post Share on other sites
5614 27 Posted January 16, 2005 Share Posted January 16, 2005 how do you get a copy of loghorn beta? on the sys properties it says its alpha build? ^ what bud said. Link to post Share on other sites
Sayonara 675 Posted January 16, 2005 Share Posted January 16, 2005 He quite clearly called it "pre-beta", which is what an alpha build is. As for bud's question, those are obviously the name/company entries he gave when he installed it. Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bkronbergs Posted January 16, 2005 Share Posted January 16, 2005 Sayonara, thanks for answering the questions posed! As for where I got the Alpha build from, I got it from BitTorrent, so try and check that one out!! Link to post Share on other sites
bloodhound 62 Posted January 17, 2005 Author Share Posted January 17, 2005 I wonder if my laptops ati mr 9000 igp can handle it. I might try the beta later on. Is there any danger to my hardware by trying out longhorn? edit: hmm i notice they have included window transparencies and other nice effects. but most likely ill just get rid of all of them so as to improve performance Link to post Share on other sites
