Mine has never frozen on me, and the newest ones are about the same size as iPods. I think I'll stop now though. If sing any more praises, don't hesitate to silence me. :P [ Saturday, April 29, 2006 08:39: Message edited by: Tyranicus ] -------------------- "You're drinking liquor because you're thirsty?

iTunes can convert WMA files, but Creative's players can actually play them without conversion. I fail to see how saying that "everyone has an iPod" can be used to say that they are the best players for Windows. This simply is not true. If you look at it based soley on feature, as opposed to the cultural "OMG teh iPod is so kewl!", Creative makes a better product for Windows users quote:Office for Macs does not seem odd to me. It is basically the standard for business applications. Internet Exporer is an integral part of Windows though. -------------------- "You're drinking liquor because you're thirsty?

Very true. The iPod is most definitely designed for Macintosh users. The fact that it can play AAC and not WMA proves this. For Windows users, a better choice would probably be the Zen line of media players from Creative Labs. They play WMA and WMV files without conversion and can be synchronized with Windows Media Player 10. -------------------- "You're drinking liquor because you're thirsty?

Blades chats are often slightly less random than general chats. Scenarios do get discussed, as well as other things. That said, I won't be home from work until 9:30 EDT, so I won't be able to make this one. -------------------- "You're drinking liquor because you're thirsty?

DEATHMATCH ONE, ROUND THREE 1. Kefka destroyed half the world. GWB will destroy the whole thing. 2. Rentar. She already controlled Garzahd in A4. DEATHMATCH TWO, ROUND ONE 1. I definitely Thuryl could mash Mr. Potato Head 2. Ms. Pac-Man has Pac-Man, whom she later married. Marlenny has a boyfriend that she's never even met. This round goes to Ms. Pac-Man. :P 3. I think Kel could take Malcolm on most levels, but Malcolm would probably come up with some sneaky plan. 4. Rainbow Brite appears underage, so I think Alec would fall victim to her charms. :P 5. Chomsky. Slip Limbaugh some pills, and down he goes. 6. Chun Li. I can't stand Bjork. :mad: 7. Ayla. She's totally hot. :wink: 8. Hargon. I hate the PowerPuff girls. -------------------- "You're drinking liquor because you're thirsty?

Holocaust denial is stupid, I agree. However, the fact that some countries have made Holocaust denial a crime is even more stupid. These people want attention, and all that does is give it to them. -------------------- "You're drinking liquor because you're thirsty?

I'm not sure if this would work or not, but you might try emailing Jeff. He probably still has them, and would most likely be willing to send them to someone with a registered copy of the game. -------------------- "You're drinking liquor because you're thirsty?

1. Garzahd, simply because Exile/Avernum can take Geneforge any day :P 2. Kefka. FFVI forever! 3. George Jefferson. I'm not a huge "Jeffersons", but "All in the Family" was cool. 4. Guy Fawkes. Remember remember the fifth of November. Gunpowder, treason and plot. I see no reason why gunpowder, treason should ever be forgot... 5. Wizard of Id. His magic may not work well, but at least it's real magic. 6. Rentar-Ihrno. Overused plot device she may be, but she still pack some punch. 7. X. Professor X may be awesome, but see how long he lasts if he has to put up with the Xian Skull. :P 8. Cordelia. She has those nice... erm... appendages. -------------------- "You're drinking liquor because you're thirsty?

Has HTML always been enabled in the BoA forum? I just noticed it now. Anyway, I am regrettably dropping out of this beta-testing. I just found out that I will be moving soon, so I won't have time for BoA for the next couple of weeks. Thralni, I sent you an email with a lot of grammatical fixes for the first town. That is unfortunately all I will be able to do. I'm sorry. [ Monday, April 24, 2006 20:50: Message edited by: Tyranicus ] -------------------- "You're drinking liquor because you're thirsty?
