<snip> This is not an RPG, more like an open ended adventure game.
In any case to answer your question, yes, Oblivion is as open ended as you think.
That actually sounds more fun than an RPG to me. :p I love adventure games, like the original Zelda, before it became overly puzzle based, and Diablo, etc.
Thanks guys, I think I'm going to have to check this one out... on a 360, though, as I have no desire to build a gaming PC or spend the required money on a Mac capable of running it via Boot Camp.

Are there any UNIX guys or gals out there who know how to get the setenv command to work in OS/X. I really need to use this command for something and not having it available is most frustrating.
Cheers,

10.3 defaults to a bash shell. you have to use bash's export command. OR simple start up csh. OR change you default shell in the netinfo database.

Second, a videophone is only useful if more than a small percentage of people out there actually have it. Until then, it's really just a gimmick.
For me, it'd be quite useful even if just the people I care to see have one.
We video Skype every day to our family members in Hawaii, Florida, Nevada, D.C. I'd love to be able to use a smartphone to do the same on vacations, instead of dragging along our laptops for that purpose.
Many smartphone models sold outside the USA have front cameras for video calls. But apparently the quality and the cost have been some reasons that prevented widespread adoption.

Of course with the Democratics and their coming hyper inflation buying big boxes might make sense again.
Thanks for injecting politics where it doesn't belong. Frankly, you shouldn't be voting if you don't even know that it's Democrats.
What kind of "exclusive deal"? And BTW, wouldn't that loss of $200k a month have also have a substantial negative impact for Costco then for Apple? If that number is true we are talking about $100 000 000 per month in declined sales.
The impact to Costco's bottom line really depends on the profit margins they were making on the iPods and how much extra foot traffic they were brining in.
There is no direct impact on their bottom line because, unlike Sam's Club, Costco doesn't make a dime on any of the products they sell, only the membership fees. Of course there is indirect negative impact if the sole reason you would become a member was to buy an iPad, but I'm willing to bet the number of people who would do that is negligible.

very different in many ways, Jobs says we make sure others ask but this doesn't answer today's question of does Apple get it and what do they do with it. Also, I'm a little afraid of Rubin's response "to my knowledge there is none but I wouldn't be for it" kind of a freaky thing to get.
We'll find out sooner or later about Apple with the lawsuits and the probe from law makers.

Today marks the day that I've had my MacBook Air for 14 days, and it also marks the last day that I have to return my MacBook Air to Apple.
So here's my story. I was playing on my MacBook Air yesterday in the morning and it started to creak when it was moved at certain positions and angles, and whenever I put my wrists on the palmrest area. I wouldn't have thought much of it, but I just paid $1300+ for this Mac and I expect it to be nearly perfect, and up until yesterday, it was. So anyways, my MacBook Air continued to creak all day yesterday and is still creaking today.
I finally had had enough of the creaking and called Apple Support. The person that helped me with my issue was VERY friendly, helpful, and seemed intent on getting my problem fixed. After giving him my information, he quickly looked up the issue and told me that a couple of the MacBook Air's have been reported to creak, but that it can be fixed by taking it to an Apple Store and having them fix it at no charge.
After telling me this, he quickly set up an appointment to talk to a Genius tomorrow at 4:00 PM. I was VERY surprised at how much the Apple Support rep seemed to care about my issue. I've owned a lot of laptops/PC's in the past and whenever I needed support, they always sucked. Apple Support was amazing and I couldn't have asked for a better experience.
This whole process took under 10 minutes, and for me the greatest thing about Apple's Support was that I COULD ACTUALLY UNDERSTAND THIS GUY! Once when I needed support from HP for my PC, I couldn't understand any of the reps at all and they didn't seem to understand what I was asking, so I ended up fixing the problem on my own, the Apple Support rep that I talked to, on the other hand, was friendly, clear in what he was saying, and intent on helping me fix my problem.
I love Apple. <3 :D
Hey SR71 :)
Good to hear! Apple do indeed have fantastic support, and I had a similar issue within a week of buying my MBP. They replaced it no questions asked. Unlike countless issues I had with Dell, and they refused to replace my faulty product! Enjoy the MBA :)

OK, am I the only one here that is getting the feeling that we won't even be able to play as our Shepard from prior games, but instead this will be Mass Effect: Black Ops and we'll be stuck as a soldier-nobody on Earth?
So no more exploring the Galaxy and even less RPG elements :(
Anyways, regardless I'll buy this game, as the first ME is one of my favorites this decade. The second one was also really good, but I was unable to finish it until after I found a hack that let me split that asinine-single-action button into individual key-actions and re-enabled crouching.

that's because it isnt animated yet. ;)
that's just the animatic, which is a rough layout of the action. that way I can work out the timing, etc before doing all the animation. it's easier to change things BEFORE they're done ;)
I start animating soon....VERY soon.

Also, I've heard plenty say they'll "never play a movie tie in game" how is a sporting event tie in any better? Plus to get it by 2008 that game will be really rushed by Nintendo's development standards :) Expect release in time for the Winter Olympics in 2010!

I own way too many but I have finally settled on one that has been on my phone for more than a month and hasn't come off. The new CandyShell in Sour Patch Lime has had no flaking issues and doesn't show scratches too badly. I like having the loud case on my phone because everyone knows it isn't theirs :).

My only hesitation was that if I pre-ordered I wouldn't know for sure if I could get that day off work. But then again, I'd be in no worse a position than if I couldn't make it on the day having not pre-ordered!
I know what I'm talking about, honest. lol
Isn't it open till late? Or maybe because it's in the Eldon Square they close at 6pm, I really don't know as im from London - But I'm *hopefully* going to Newcastle Uni in Sept, If you cover my flight costs i'll buy it for you and deliver specially to your workplace :cool: :apple: :cool:

It depends on which WU you have and the processor. A G4 takes a bit longer then a G5 or an Intel (faster cpu). If you want to check you are folding, look in the activityviewer, there are some processes working, one of them is FahCore_XX.exe . If that is using most of your processorpower, then it is folding! If it is not showing, then it isn't folding

Even if climate change is 100% conclusively proven to be human caused, I would still argue that wealth creation is the best way to combat it. Florida floods...move. Can't farm in Mexico anymore, Canada now becomes farmable.
And where should the 160 million people in Bangladesh go? Assuming that "wealth creation" focuses on just those most likely to be affected by climate change�and we'll assume that the loss of bread baskets in the US, Russia, and Europe will be counteracted by gains in Canada, etc.�there's still the fundamental problem of moving millions from their current homes to new locations. Even 18 million people in Florida would represent a massive shift in people and infrastructure and that's assuming that wealth presents symmetrically.
Even with several big 'ifs' you have a major problem that won't be solved with money alone.
A link to what? A summary of Climategate? I'll let you flex your google-muscles on that one.
You mean how after the dust settled the scientists were cleared of any scientific misconduct? That the hacked emails were taken out of context by people who stood to gain political points? That even if "climate gate" was entirely true, this doesn't change the wide scientific inquiry done by hundreds of scientists over a period of thirty years.
Of course, if you really cared you would read the report (http://www.cce-review.org/pdf/FINAL%20REPORT.pdf).
