My friend had a Magnavox system and we’d play a lot of pong. But my first was a apple ][+. Timex Sinclair anyone? The vectrex was pretty cool.
I still have the apple and a box full of disks. Captain Goodnight was a good one. :)
Your going to have to hold onto that magpul stuff for a bit. I was in a pretty serious motorcycle accident on Monday. I'm ok but am not going to be able to drive for a few weeks. I have some cool before and after X-rays. I wonder if I should post them. Lol
Actually Honda started out building motorcycles. Their first car imported into N. America was the S500. A roadster which was the original predescessor to the S2000.
It's essentially a dell credit card with a really bad interest rate. As long as you pay your bill in full on time you will incur no additional charges. I've had a account for about two years and had no problems with it.
I got mine today. It has 2 pixels stuck on and some minor backlight problem but I'm keeping it. I had to look really hard to find the pixels so I'm not complaining at $486. It's a beautiful monitor. :)
According to the specs 2001FP has a contrast ratio of 400:1. The 2005FPW is 600:1. The 2001FP brightness is 250 cd/m2 and on the 2005FPW it's 300 cd/m2. From someone that has both can you actually tell the difference? I want a standard screen but darnit I want those higher specs!
I have a APC Back-UPS XS 1500 and it came with a program that runs on my computer and tells me such information as wattage being consumed. I have 2 computers hooked to it. A XP3200+ system with a 20" lcd and a athlon64 system with 19" crt monitor plus my cable modem and router. WIth both...
The thing that confuses me is I can run fine at stock speeds 200x9 with a 1:1 memory ratio but if I try 300x9 with a 2/3 memory ratio it will not boot. To run stable I have to use the 1/2 memory ratio which forces me to use a 150 mhz ddr speed. Anyone have any insite concerning this?
Just enable the console in the keyboard advanced menu and press ~. Type maps * to get a list of maps. Then type map d2_beach_03.bsp or so to get back to where you were.
I get stuttering when I first enter a new map but after that it's smooth as silk. I feel bad for everyone having problems. It really is a good game.

Had 0 problems so far. Finally a game that doesn't suck and lives up to the hype. :) Once the steam servers settle down then people will quit having problems and all will be well in the world.
I also played those two games. They seemed very ahead of their time at least until Captain Goodnight came out. hehe If you want to play Castle Wolfenstein and BCW again then download a apple ][ emulator and the roms for them.
I have a 2.2 gig magicstor microdrive in my gps system and am happy with it. Surely not as durable as a solid state device but they do the trick reliably.
