Four too.
Nice, but I have lots of stuff to do instead.

snickerI might go for a PCI-E if I don't stagger the upgrades. Aren't the PCI-E 6800s bridged, anyway?
Along the lines of "yeah, wel done Gordon, I can see that M.I.T. education really pays for itself" when you <zomg>flick a switch on the teleporter</zomg>.
Ah, I didn't know that it had extra cache. I've got an R360 core, though; are there variants of R360 too?
jaardsi: I'm gunna have an AMD Athlon64 3500+ Venice (pwned), a GeForce 6800GT 256MB AGP (pwned), and 1024MiB DDR400 (uh, okay, tie there) ;>. ?808.46 ? going to be sometime after Christmas, fingers crossed.

I use avast!, and I assure you it's freeware.
You 'clean' your registry... but don't ever bother defragging? Get your priorities right :|.

You upgrade at boot sales? You can run HL?
Well, I think the standard Pro speeds are 380/338; quite a bit lower.
I managed to get mine up to XT speeds, but it didn't seem to make any difference to the Source benchmarking. To be honest, clocking my Athlon 2400+'s FSB from 266MHz to 333MHz and lowering the multiplier, thereby raising the CPU freq. from 2.0 to 2.3GHz, didn't make much difference either. What do you reckon might be a bottleneck? They made a little difference at low resolutions, but very little else.

You, actually, asking where all the oil went ;).
Oil -> plastics. LQQK around you.

I challenge anyone with a 9800 who runs above 640x480 and with settings on High to tell me that the Strider-busting roof scenes didn't lag at all.

I'm replacing most of my PC soon-ish, probably early next year. Minor-ish upgrades from time to time, but I think I've pushed this lot enough now.
The poorest part of the system, though. m0p is actually right, a 9600 is probably a little below-average for mid-spec gamers.

... or if you want to play games. If you didn't, you could use LINUX :|.
I'm sorry Alex, I think your actually wrong this time. Because Avast expires in 60 days, it would be classified as shareware.Er, you can register for free... did you download the wrong version?
Should I take this to mean you don't maintain your registry?Those things are a con. Do you defragment yours, though?
Not necessarily well. What spec. is the rest of the system? Similar-age stuff?
How big is it?
I disagree with my learn?d friend. If your PC works fine before, it'll work fine after. The question is "is it all fine at the moment?"
How the hell was Lost in Translation good? Bugger all happened. It was lame.
(Re)install your motherboard AGP drivers and graphics drivers?
Use IRC :|.
YIM is a joke.

The very first Example Map in the 'Vault illustrates this.
The Friends thing sucks. It never signs you in automatically, there doesn't seem to be any option to do so, and you can never manage to connect manually.

Terragen there, habboi?
I really don't see peoples' problems with SP2 :.
Glad you find the proggies useful, Anteh.

Whoa, he spelt "doughnuts" right!
We have a good few active members still ? I'd say... fifty-odd? Anyway, I guess that's that now, sorted the camera.

We don't really have the space or bandwidth for much more, I'm afraid.
High praise indeed!
Oh no. A population increase of 0.01% from people fleeing from the poverty in Mexico. How will you manage.
The grass looks far too bright, and it still needs to be less blue.
I don't feel that gameplay changed that much between CS and CS:S. I seem to be in a small minority, though.
He was being sarcastic, I'm pretty sure ;).
196cm, real units... six foot three. That's not very impressive.

That from scratch, quiet?
What pisses me off is how the boards always read things like "76.9", "83.9". What is the bloody point? Dishonest bastards.
Ah, return to irrationality ;).
satch: I use the program in general to keep an eye on what's running. Features like handle-handling are useful for when Explorer has decided to stop you from deleting empty folders by locking them.

I thought he'd be more like Bender, actually.

Quite a bit of it is useful, satchy, in my opinion, and I'm not much of a programmer.
new post new discoveryWas that meant to mean something to me?
Too small to see.
Yeah, just clip them.
The Hitchiker's film was lame. They cut out practically all the proper jokes and put in some dumb SIMPLE AMERICAN HUMOR... and what the fuck? Why was Marvin a cross between a Teletubby and a Furby!? 
I weigh about ninety. Lanky-boy! 
I know about Adobe PhotoShop and Jasc Paint Shop Pro. They actually seem to do the exact same tasks, but Paint Shop Pro takes less time to load.Hear, hear! P.S.P. F.T.W.
Swearing's fine by us, on those grounds. It's when posts get personal that they might cross the line :).
WINDOWS XP HOMEBURN HIM GOOD
Ah, a subject close to my heart.
Anti-virus: avast! (freeware, not shareware, as incorrectly posted by rowley).
Software firewall: Sygate PF, which I only use for app. control. Its packet logging is alright, but not as useful as Sysinternals'.
Hardware firewall: NAT router. WLAN, but 63-rchar AES WPA PSK.
Registry: what?
Browser: Opera(s).
Spyware: Ad-Aware, Spybot S&D.
Processes: the supreme Process Explorer. Nothing beats it!
Startup: Starter.
All freeware. Get it all! Oh, plus I'm on XP Pro.
PS: m0p: there's an article on Sysinternals about running XP in 6MiB o' RAM, too.

Hell yes. Best. Plottwist. Ever. Kevin Spacey pwns.
38: "percent eighty-five"? Dude, wake up :P.
I didn't even bother watching the latest Star Wars. I have 2001 on my DVD player, not watched it yet, though. Probably will next week, or at the weekend.

I'm not all that sure quite when I started mapping. Started FPSing and HLing together, and pretty recently, in... 2002, I think it was. I found CS first, then, at some point, found Hammer. I played with it briefly, wondered why the hell the boxes I was trying to create disappeared whenever I tried to make another one, and gave up. After a whole lot of searching, found here, registered... and lost it.
Then (new paragraph, just to break it up), found it again by fluke, a few months later. I'd've found it much quicker if only you could tap colour descriptions into Google (this orange really sticks). Er, then here we are. My first proper project was a pair project, Cause of Death, which won John_Crichton and I a gold trophy apiece in Trapped. Et cetera.
