Well, I got a new motherboard and video card before thanksgiving (ASUS A7N8X nForce
2 and ATI AIW Radeon 8500DV). The video card had some sort of distortion at high
resolutions and required 8(!) drivers. I contacted ATI and they were not very
‘considerate’ so… I returned it. I think it was damaged, but
8 drivers? Please. By the way, Newegg.com has INCREDABLE customer service and
fantastic prices.
Any way, I got an eVGA (e-ve-je-a) GF4 Ti 4600. It was the cheapest, and the fastest. The manual is 100% glossy and full color. EVGA has a 888 support number, and include a reasonable amount of software. I also got a Leadtek WinFast TV2000XP. It’s a LOT better then the ATI card
It turns out that you can’t install VS6 with the WinXP SP1. So, I wasn’t able to program at all until I reinstalled. I have been working on the CEInfoBar program. It’s going to be configurable and a lot better in almost every way
I added a link to my mac.com page for my “personal” page. Apple makes it so easy to make a web page, especially when you have a digital camera and iPhoto. You can post a picture page by: Plugging in the camera (iPhoto launches automatically, configurable), click import, select the images you want on the site, click share, then homepage, then enter captions and such, then click finish. It’s that easy.
I’ve been playing a lot of War 3. Even though Starcraft is the best game ever, it lags with the crap internet they have here
That’s about it for now.
