Thx...like I said it was fun and amazing that stuff lives as long as
it does. He is a great guy and I am proud of both him and his
accomplishments.

I broke down and gots a new rig, too...

Vista Ultimate 64bit (XP Pro dual boot)
Intel Core 2 Duo E6850 3 GHz oced to 3.3
ASUS StrikerExtreme
4 gigs ram
dual 160 sata WDD drives @ 10000
dual LG L246WP Digital Flatron 24" widescreens
dual Lite-On DVDRW's
and....drum roll...dual 8800 GTX 768's (in SLI mode when gaming,
naturally)

now if Nvidia can ever deliver drivers that can keep up wid their
hardware...all would be right wid da world.

DX10 is a hoot...tho the code is not nearly realized yet. But it does
make Crysis and Bioshock pretty.
3D Mark06 = 15260 (no OC)

CRYSIS is my bitch!    hehehe...

I agree about tweaks...who needs em? I'm hittin AVG 37fps MAX 60fps in
Crysis benchmark map Island.

I know I'm bragging but who cares?   :))))

Good to hear from all ya'll again. I hope to cya on the servers.

I lost my disk, tho. Can ya spare an old man a key?



p.F. marXbig...who knows just enough to be dangerous!
