client as in not inbuilt, the client that opens when you click:
1. someones email address
2. the read mail button
3. the new message button
in firefox.

and outlook express is definately not associated with FF anyway. duh. lol.

Pfft, who needs Gmail notifier? I've got mine POPified and running through Opera's mail client.
can you do this in FF? if so, how? because i can seem to get rid of OLexpress being the default email client of FF.

in Bunny Hopping is not Dead! Post #173657
bunnyhopping is all about timing.
jobabob your wrong, bhopping isnt a bug - it was put into hl2 on purpose, CS:S was designed to take out bunnyhopping, and aparrently they are removing support for surf soon too.
try bunnyhopping in hl2, you can rack up huge speeds and its been tested you can jump further than 400 units. (official record without bunnyhopping is 249 units)

Name one firefox plugin you cant live without.
flashgot - since i use getright, i need this to catch clicks in firefox

CustomizeGoogle - ok, maybe not absolutely nescessary, but it disables those annoying ads for me and you can turn on google suggest and other useful stuff quickly

IEtab - lets you open an instance of IE inside a tab in firefox. this instance has the security most of the firefox features (it is beta)

ChatZilla - how else would i use IRC? it also integrates links you click to open in the window of firefox you have open and has a range of awsome smilies :P

i use flashgot the most - it is definately the plugin i couldnt live without

the problem with macs is the upgrading issue - the same reason there aren't many laptop gamers around. you cant upgrade to a better video card etc. alot of gamers like to build their own computer from scratch - you cant do this with a mac.

in warning norton antivirus Post #172464
i use AVG and spybot - i have no need for a firewall - no personal transactions, no reason to hack me, AVG detects viruses as they come in. in my opinion, a firewall is just an annoyance - with port forwarding and whatnot. i know some ppl swear by them, but i dont :)
i would never consider using norton. my dad uses it - well he used to, until he got a corrupt boot driver and i had to format his PC. he wanted norton on, but the CD he had was scratched, and his CD key was 1 digit short. lol. so i installed AVG and spybot, and he is using the sp2 firewall. it's really funny, he's psyco about keeping up-to-date antivirus progs, but he uses a word program that was made in '97. and his accounting prog is really old too. lol.
oh yea i use microsoft antispyware as well because shock horror i have a legal version of XP! omg! :P

in PS3 - What are YOU looking forward to? Post #172165
i was gunna upgrade to a top-of-the-line PC, but when i saw dx10 is coming out so soon, i will wait for a fully dx10 compatible vid card.
Question: how can microsoft make dx10 without a dx10 card? weird :
aparrently dx10 has tons of upgrades and stuff which lets the GPU do more stuff or something like that lol.
anyway....
5 facts about consoles:
1. they are NOT aimed at hardcore gamers. they are aimed at the 'loungeroom' gamer. the revolution has been designed to 'invite' new gamers into the platform with its simplicity etc.
2. because of this, nintendo bring their price down. they do this by reducing the overkillage of hardware. nintendo havent released any numbers (cpu speed, gfx, etc) because they feel that they are unnescessary. this is true. most people buy their consoles based on how fun it will be, or how easy to use, etc. they dont look on the net and see what the speed of the cpu is. most people who use consoles dont know what a cpu is.
3. the drop in price means that people will buy the product. if there were 3 consoles, and 2 were almost identical in design and controller and they were high in price, and one had a unique controller and was $200 cheaper, i would instantly get the cheaper one. Why? because its cheap and different.
4. people dont buy consoles for their features. if you want a DVD player, you dont go out and buy an xbox. you buy a DVD player. the revolution doesnt have all the crap attached like and xbox does. why the hell would microsoft want to let people connect a PC to a 360? they want more money.
5. microsoft and sony want nothing but money. why? an example. the xbox controller isn't compatible with the 360. only a small amount of the xbox games work on the 360. this is a marketing ploy to make more money. let alone the 360 games cost more than xbox games. the ps3 needs expensive memory cards. with the revolution, you CAN use gamecube controllers, you CAN play any nintendo game ever made on it, and their memory cards are SD cards. THESE ARE CHEAP! a PS memory card is 8 MB for about A$30 minimum. an SD card is about 512 MB for A$70.

therefore:
revolution is cheaper
revolution has better and more games (at launch at at least 2000 games)
revolution is more intuitive, is easier to use, and has better backwards compatibility.

@mop: if you have nothing to contribute, get lost. this is a debate about consoles. we all know PC's have better graphics capabilities.

that pic that zombieloffe posted is fake; stop posting fan-made images of what they think that the control will look like - nintendo hasnt announced the design for the gamepad for the rev or even said if there will be one.
if you're into graphics, get a PC like a normal person. if you want decent games, get the revolution.

omg. no wonder xbox and playstation do so well. its all specs specs specs.
for all you stupid people and stupid people like you, its not about the games, its just so you can say 'hey look at my $800 console it can play in HD at 1080p!!!'
and when someone says 'lets play a game on it so we can see it!'
but you would have to say 'nah it doesnt have any decent games.'
BECAUSE THE GAMES ARE GAY!
nintendo are devoted to the games. you can play the rev games, as well as the gamecube games, as well as EVERY SINGLE NINTENDO CONSOLE GAME EVER MADE. as well as some handhelds.
