    what are your favourite counter-strike skins and maps.

    Some of the replacement skins for for the AK-47 and the AWP available on the internet are absolutely mind blowing in my opinion, they added new skins in condition zero, but I still think that the skins you can get off the web are heaps better. Many of you have said that I should stick to the...

    Darn. My kid shredded my Half Life 2 coupon

    It seems like half life 2 is never going to come out, Rumours are that the game stalker has a graphics engine that makes half life 2 just look "plain good" instead of "incredibly flawless and amazing". I accidentally used my HL2 cd key as my HL cd key because the cd key on my half life case was...

    what are your favourite counter-strike skins and maps.

    I am sick of people complaining about counter strike, for example "ask mommy to buy you a new game" "noob games like counter strike". Counter strike is estimated to of dominated 80% of the online action market, and when people think of modding, they think of counter strike and half life...

    My ADSL modem is the alcatel speedtouch 530. I have lost the drivers cd. I went to the alcatel website but they only have driver upgrades (how painfully stupid). Are there any websites that I can download the drivers from?

    56k blues. Tweaking?

    How often does that happen, Once in a blue moon with yellow rabbits climbing ladders backwards while opening umbrella's indoors? you can get that speed all the time with ADSL so i guess it isn't that much of a big deal, My ADSL usually starts at 90 KB/s and then slowly goes down to 30 KB/s

    I don't think you should have posted this topic in the general hardware forum, maybe the games forum or the general software forum, HL2 can also run on a macintosh, you know, if anybody cares.

    BASIC things to consider when looking for speakers, please feel free to add

    the RMS rating on most multimedia speakers are useless. Creative claim that their flagship model has a 210 watt RMS subwoofer. Everyone knows that the PMPO rating is crap.

    z-640s or Zalman?
