I just started Bill Brysons 'A short history of Nearly Everything' which was a xmas gift. I thought it would be tedious ( hence it's taken me so long to pick it up ) but it's actually very informative and pretty funny. The first few chapters cover the big bang and It's been a really fun sort of 'nuclear physics for…
super excited for it - they seriously blew me away with that conference been rocking a macbook for the last few years, with a similar price tag, and I think I may have to return to windows... the polish, tech and portability - imagine the hour long seshes in the toilet... :poly124: they haven't yet confirmed which nvidia…

nice!! Im really liking it! If it were mine, id tuck in a few "busy" spots of tech, sticking out in strategic places. Right now (to me) it seems slightly modern b/c of all the sleek shapes. Heres a pic of a bike. Check out how makeshift it looks. Thats atleast what I think of when i hear steam punk =)…
Speed painting is such a horrible buzzword thats been floating around for years and people end up interpreting it in different ways. I see it as saying a lot with as little as possible and using minimal accurate brushstrokes in order to convey the details. I dont really like the idea of doing a lot of sampling from photos,…
Game runs great at medium and high settings for me, but not at full resolution. I have to knock it back to 1152x864 instead of 1680x1050. Though I have to do the same with Bioshock as well. I'm running a Core2Duo E6600 and a BFG 8800GTS OC2. As for the game, I liked it. Sure, it doesn't have a massive amount of depth, but…
