x86-64 is 64bit, which being an extension of x86 instruction set; supports both 64bit and 32bit applications natively.

Other way round

So while you lot argue about what x86-64 means does anyone else know any computers?

@FunkyCaveman - It's pretty good but as said I'd be wasting money. Thanks though. :)

I always liked the Master Control Program from TRON. It was a desk that was essentially a giant iPad. It had voice recognition software. It used contractions. It had a well developed sense of revenge...which, last I heard was a human emotion. It even "felt" hackers, and could identify them by the invasive tone of their coding style. That, my friends, is one fantastic computer.

Better than that is Proteus, from "Demonseed". A computer that amassed enough knowledge to recognize us as a threat, construct a rape machine out of an icosahedron, abduct a hot British model, and birth himself into flesh. That, my friends, is a super fantastic computer. It knows how dangerous we are, and it gave us the finger. :)

doctormario, I thought that I should tell you that your above post was thoroughly enjoyable to the point that I sent it to my friend for him to also enjoy. Bravo good sir.

The sophisticated text is only to give more substance to an otherwise empty post.

Why don't you get the starcraft mouse while you're at it? ;)

good choice though, I've been wanting the DeathAdder for a while. Oh well, G5 is also great

also, add me on the beta: plato.894

I haven't re-entered the beta I've been busy and have no mouse. and from the looks of it, it shuts off again in a few days. Maybe the mouse will come in 1 shipping day, but I doubt it haha. Also the APM Lighting System on the Spectre (Starcraft mouse) looks pretty BA but i have no idea what it is. It's also 20 bucks more which I don't need and finger grease marks show up more on silver than black.

I'll add you if I get back on the beta before it closes again, otherwise I'll just wait for the game to come out.

Do you know if a preorder guarantees you a digital download copy immediately or do you have to stand in line at gamestop to pick it up?

I'm beginning to wonder if I can cancel my preorder from Gamestop and just buy it/download it from Blizzard the day it comes out, risk free of missing out on the game during release.

I've learned never to preorder anything. I preordered Modern Warfare 2 and waited for months for it to come out. In that great day in November when the game finally came out, I was disappointed to see that it hadn't arrived in my mailbox. My friend went out to the store that same day and bought it. He mocked me for an entire week--which is how long it took for my preordered game to arrive.

You should just go out and buy it the day of the release.

Usually I like having a physical copy of the game in case I want to install it on a different computer of mine or something. But nowadays it's almost not worth it to take care of a box and disc and stuff. Looks like Blizzard just bypassed the whole preorder thing anyways. Further decline of the retail stores.

moar beta testing :O

In lack of better things to do while waiting for mike to find what's causing the API issues for little cannon (stfu kirk, I'll get to NG-medals >:[ you know.. eventually) I finished up the game that I started working on for pico day. I didn't have many hours left before midnight when I started and ended giving up on making it in time, but I was hoping to be able to release it a couple of days later instead.

That was like three months ago, but better late then never I suppose! I'll do an open beta this time around: awesomness.

It's by no means perfect, but that was never something I aimed for so I wont make changes at this point unless they're either very quick and/or necessary ;) Will release on Sunday unless some serious bug comes up that I can't handle by then.

I didn't play it for long, but I didn't find any bugs.
Also are those your original graphics?

I'd just like a physical copy of sc2 since its such an awesome game. But looking back on it I haven't really needed physical copies. Emails, contacting companies about your online user accounts, text files, etc haven't failed as backups for my cd keys

An all rounder preferably. I do a mixture of things. A bit of gaming (I've never cared for graphics quality though), a bit of various sorts of design, some photoshop. Lots of web browsing. Yeah that's about all I do.

That's pretty cool, I like the idea, but it is really too easy, I'm not sure if the game got progressively harder as I gained more meters. Also some faint tank tracks would be cool, I thought they were floating to start with :o

you are the bane of the starcraft beta. Haven't seen any good players from bronze yet, but I do keep getting matched up against lame silvers who cheese my ass to victory. Cannon rushes, flying command centers to high yield as soon as the game starts, banshee rushes. ive seen it all. actually i think im losing to silvers more often to golds (which is my league atm), because at least they play like gentlemen.

the cheesiest thing ive ever done is go for fast dark templars, it works quite awesome against warpgate-greedy protoss. but i really dislike those games; id much rather see a nice quality macro game where players actually need to multi-task, or at least some nice micro in early attacks. there's not really a lot of micro to be doing on a cannon rush rofl

lol that's fucking gay. i dont get how he didnt attack for 40mins, that's retarded. in less than 30mins i'd be 200/200 supply locked on fucking colossi or something if the opponent doesn't do any harass.

i mean, seriously, just get off the bronze league and start playing the real game

I found my old copy of Unreal Tournament today, and I was surprised at the number of people still playing. The game's from what, like 1999? I'm amazed.

UT Classic is the best in the series, so that might explain it. It's fun to mod, too.
