Try Eureka, as they try to work some humor into each episode. Season 3 will be back sometime in 2009. I have seasons 1 and 2 on DVD, and will get 3 when it is out on DVD.

Retail prices for paper and ink are the wrong thing to look at. Print Shops buy in bulk, and those that print books buy in even larger bulk. As quantity goes up, costs go down. Even high end software has been tranding away from printed manuals.

Good article. DRM has gone totally insane, where it punishes the legitimate user.

I have Them! on DVD. This topic is about movies that don't exist. Those old B movies were low budget, but, very creative.

I preordered Fallout 3 for Windows. Estimated ship date is November 3 by Amazon.com. I sort of fell in love with FO 1 and 2 as they are lots of fun.

Even experienced pilots have to go into the simulator periodically, in order to maintain certification.

Not bad at all. Thank you for having the courage to post a reply! I was wondering if anyone would ever dare to reply. Note that my title never existed, and would likely have been banned back in those days.

B Movie Title Fun in Everything Else GalCiv2 Forums

Harking back to the old days, let us have fun making up titles. I will start this. Invasion of the Flatulons Genre: SciFi Alien type: green Gas, Intelligent Ship Type: Classic Flying Saucer

Interesting points. However, like any game, it depends on whether the player in question is mentally stable or not, at least in terms of potential Psychotic Episodes. I remember when it was the thing to blame Looney Tunes (Bugs Bunny and Company) for violence and crime. Jeez, kids are a lot smarter than those idiot psychologists give them credit for!

I agree that 8 GB is the sweet spot.

Well, the asgard that spoke with Daniel was very forthright about their problems, and their reasoning about the Alteran Device: Their survival matters and nobody else's does. That sets the tone for further encounters.

Not Earth Human (Terran), but, humans still. With enough jerry rigging to make Selenka (spelling?) whine like Rodney McKay. The group is called the Travellers. I record on Friday night and a friend and I watch on Monday late afternoon.

Reply to Windows 7 it is...now for my wish list in Personal Computing GalCiv2 Forums

One does not need to dual boot 32 and 64 in order to run 32 bit applications, provided the installers are not 16 bit. The problem is hardware that does not have 64 bit drivers.

Reply to Windows 7 it is...now for my wish list in Personal Computing GalCiv2 Forums

System OEMs are guilty of preloading 32 bit Windows on 64 bit hardware by default. I run XP Pro 32 and 64 on this computer. However, I rarely boot into 32 bit, which is only for those things that won't run in 64, like my LaserJet 1018 (backup printer). We do need to get away from 32 bit. Oh, I have 8 GB installed and my mobo can handle a max of 32 GB.

Reply to “I’m a PC” Ads from Microsoft in Personal Computing GalCiv2 Forums

Gay.... The word was originally G.A.Y., which means Good As You. It sort of devolved in print to Gay, of which the original meaning is Happy. Anywas, I haven't watched those ads.

I think Janus is the one who built the End Game device. Don't forget he was a maverick, and chief scientist on Atlantis.

The Furlings are the other member race of the Alliance (Asgard, Alterans aka Ancients, Nox, Furlings), and Earth Humans (Terrans) are the Fifth Race of the Alliance, as stated by the Asgard in the last episode of SG-1. Atlantis is going to 2 hour format, direct to DVD, like SG-1 did.
