Thanks, Mark, been doing ok :-) Good to see you again too! I'm sure
I'll be investing in an updated PC by the time D3 hits the streets,
hopefully one with Windows 7 on it, and not Vista ;-)  I'm still on XP
at this time, never did take a fancy to the upstart. 

Was just on Blizzard's site checking out some of the screenshots and
videos, and the mage looks pretty darn cool. They've had a lot of
years for their concept artists to perfect some awfully nice-looking
spell affects... I drool just seeing these short vids. The
realtime-physics are pretty neat, too. Be interesting to see what kind
of machine it will take, to do all of it justice.
