Looks like a must buy. It is not that expensive either. I'm not quite sure, however, whether it will work on my old system (Intel duo, T6400, 2 ghz, GE Force 9600M GT, 4GB RAM). How is the framerate on your computers? BTW I like the fact that ship design and combat is relatively simple. I hope they keep it that way.

Another question: Does shield mitigation also work when the shields are exhausted? In the thread it is written: "Shield mitigation is present when the shields are down." This seems somewhat counter intuitive since it is called shield mitigation. Thanks again for helping me!

Probably a very noobish question, but it is still not clear to me from this post. 1) Does armor already work when you still have positive shields? Or does it only apply to the damage done to the hull of a ship? Thank you for your help!

Wow, what a research. You should be paid to do this ;) Perhaps it is useful for people that dont have that much time, to make some brief summaries of the main points of your posts, by using bullets format. I suspect it will also increase the odds that Yarlen will do something with it!

Reply to Best for reading - Ipad or Kindle? in Personal Computing Sins Forums

I think i prefer the kindle, since I would be using it mostly for reading. I was just wondering if an Ipad reads better than just reading from a regular computer screen or laptop screen. I suppose both have the disadvantage that you are looking into a source of strong light, which the Kindle doesn't have. Actually there was just big news today that amazon will soon announce new tablets. Another question, are all new (and interesting old) books available on kindle?

Best for reading - Ipad or Kindle? in Personal Computing Sins Forums

I'm thinking about buying either the Amazon Kindle or Ipad2. I wonder if you have experience with these machines and how they match up for reading. Of course I know the Kindle is especially meant for reading, but I wonder if the Ipad comes close or if the kindle is in a league on its own.
