Re: OT: Don\'t Buy XP Home

Hey, Narf. Any ETA on SEV, or is it just "when it's done"?

Re: OT: Don\'t Buy XP Home

Oops, browsing some other threads I see that SEV still hasn't been released yet, so I guess that is another reason that I haven't bought it. *g*

Re: OT: Don\'t Buy XP Home

Howdy, Fyron. Thanks for the info. I'll hunt a bit more for that old thread and link it from here if I find it; I think you gave a few site links in that thread.

Re: Ambiguous test:

Grammar quibble: you have hunters' (plural possessive) rather than hunter's (single possessive) making it appear that more than one hunter was involved.

Re: Are We Evil?

Even though it is only a game, I dislike killing enemy populations and will do so only under circumstances that would justify it (to me) in real life.

For example, in one game against the AI those...

Re: OT: need help installing Win98SE on new HD
