Re: OT: I\'m a Proud Owner (Father?)
Renegade, Don't think of it as 'Evil'. but rather just some encouraging news. If I have an alpha copy of se5, then that means the Beta is getting closer and that in turn means that all the drooling fans (like yourself) will be getting their hands on the final Version soon enough.
On second thought, it WAS evil, I'm EVIL,.. Muahahahahahaha!

Hmmm, good point(s). At least we now know it's all coming along well.

Re: OT: I\'m a Proud Owner (Father?)
Sure thing Narf. But there is a small problem: Canadian or American dollars? Since there is no such thing as a "dollar" without a national adjective, this currency does not exist; therefore, your wish has been cancelled, and the Genie has gone back to the bottle.
This was a friendly message brought to you by the Association for Productive Nitpicking, ie "How to avoid fulfilling problematic wishes".

Re: OT: I\'m a Proud Owner (Father?)
OK, while we're on the topic of SE5, then, David... 
Have you tried running it under wine on Linux yet? I'm thinking my next PC will be a Linux box but I *really* don't want to miss out on SE5!  Even the 2D mode would be good enough for me as long as it works to some degree...

Rubber hammers? A novel idea! *Snickers as the hammers fail to harm his crystalline-powered personal shields, and glowers at Narf just to keep that good habit*

Hi All, I just upgraded my graphics card to a nVidia gForce FX 5200. (and it only cost me $99cdn) ..and the installation was once again 'painless'.
So, do any of you know of any good games that take advantage of all the cool features on my new graphics card? I downloaded a few of the demo's at nVidia and they look great, but I'm eager to see my graphics card in live action..
Q2: I currently have Jedi Academy and Neverwinter Knights installed, I haven't played them since getting the card, do they have 'extra' umph and pizzaz if the graphics card is up to par?
Anyway, One good thing,.. it has improved my frame rates in SE5. So just for that it is/was worth it.
Cheers!

Well I am also the proud owner of a Geforce FX 5200 and I have been playing alot of Far Cry and Counter-Strike: Source with excellent graphics and framerate.
