Blargh!
MG has sold his comp and I have not only lost the ability to change my sig, but also lost the ability to play T2!:(


I so can't play T2 for now...

:(

I at least hope I can play T2 again...:(
What am I going to do?:(

[Ghryphen]

Buy a computer ;)

[Stang]

You can still come here :) .

And you can always make an avatar on your computer :D .

[Aluscia]

Your bro should have sold that computer to my sister. She was interested in it, but he was asking *WAY* too much... If he had offered 1000 to my sister, she would have taken it, you know. She's really pissed now. I hope your bro watches his back :lol

[RazorDragoon]

Your sis was cheap!
It was worth alot more than $1700!
And,Stang, I do have a comp it's just not built to play T2

[Stang]

Yeah you have your own so you can make your own avatar since yours is gone on someone elses now.

[RazorDragoon]

My comp doesn't have access to the ftp that manages my sigs.

[Mythril Gear]

Yeah, pretty much what he said was correct. I have sold my computer, and you'll never guess to who! It was Salin Ven. Watch out, you might see him on tribes some day! But yeah, I thought my computer was definitely worth less than 1700, but I never thought it would be as bad as 1000. Depreciation on computers is sick these days. Really sick. Besides, you sister never would have paid me even that much money. I think that your sister was intersted, but she wasn't ready to pay that much money out. Well, I got myself a nice 'ol laptop for university. An Apple laptop. Whahahahahaha!!! This thing is evil. It's so tiny and weighs a TON! However, there is no software for it! No one makes mac software any more!!! boo hooo hoooo hoooooo...... Ah well, it's one kickin' machine, its got a 500 mhz G3 proc, 192 megs of ram, CDrom, ethernet, usb, firewire, tv/monitor out, and its really quiet too. Of course, I did pay almost 2000 for it... soooo... well, it's nice to be online again. Just
thought I'd say hi to ya all.

Jeff

PS: And to laur: have you seen Inuyasha yet? It's freakin' amazing!

[Maz]

You got an Apple computer, *sigh*, that thing does'nt run anything, but it does'nt T2:(, but it runs D2:)

My bro got an laptop too, it's an Celeron 800MHz with 128MB RAM, it was supply by the university, of course, I did'nt get one, damn you and your smarty ass class

[Mythril Gear]

Hey hey! This has nothing to do with my smarty ass class! I went out and bought the laptop! It costed nearly $2000. So there! I'm working on getting D2 to run on it... but I'm having no luck so far. (I lack an install disc.)
Trust me, laptops are a horrible thing these days. I say some guy with his 1.0 gigahertz laptop. The thing was a friggin beast! It was huge! It also had these air channels inside to cool it off and stuff, it had nearly as many fans as my old PC had! That's scary! But hey, it could play all the games you guys and your PC's can. He had quake 1, shogo, quake 3, half life, snes9x, and lots of other stuff. If you want a high performance laptop, be prepared for the weight and the cost. I just got my self a a small litto Apple, nothing big and powerful, just enough to play my mp3s and run MSWord.

[Maz]

My laptop cost me 200$, it's an P133MHz with 16MB RAM, it runs office and MP3 player, why pay 2000$

[Stang]

We never said everyone has a brain :D , J/K.

Guess someone didnt shop around :) .

[Maz]

My is second hand, why buy new, it will lose it's value in a year anyways

[Stang]

Wow your generous, you give it a year :D . Id say a couple of months :) .

[Cerberus]

they lose their value when they leave the store like a new car.

[Mythril Gear]

Hey hey now! If you want quality equipment, you gots ta pay for it! Do you realize that Apple Computer controls both the hardware production and the operating system development for its computers? That means they can afford to throw out all the old legacy junk that no one uses, like parallel and serial ports. All that stuff is being replaced by USB, which is cheaper and more plug and playable. (yes, you *can* unplug a PS/2 keyboard or mouse while the PC is running, but watch what happens when you plug it back in!) Besides, throwing all the legacy stuff also removes bottlenecks and stuff from your computer. I have a firewire controller in this laptop! I bet that most of you don't have one in your PC, whereas Apple can put all kinds of nifty stuff in their computers. I guess it also depends on what u are looking for in a computer, I'm not looking for a 22 million transistor AMD Athlon to crank out my games on, I just want a NICE portable laptop, which most x86 laptops arent. Besides, you paid $200 for something with less than half the specs of mine. And it was used, that also decreases the cost of computers (although, when you think about it, most computer parts don't wear down like, say, car parts do. A 3 year old PC can still work just as good as it did 1 or 2 or 3 years ago.) Besides, my laptop looks stypish! Its such a gorgeous white-grey color, and the keyboard is white too, everything is white! It's so cool, I'm not regretting my decision one bit.

(PPS: on the other hand, I could have gotten a Powerbook Titanium G4, which is probably more powerfull than most of your desktops, but costs nearly $4000 CANADIAN, even with an educational discount, however, it kicks sooo much azz (including your bank account's azz) no matter how u look at it!)

[Maz]

you say that now, but in a yar from now when it's work 200$, you'll say you should of goten a second hand laptop like I did and keep your other one, which would of been nice for you and your brother

[Stang]

You say computer parts dont wear down like car parts but they do, when a computer gets too old it can barely do what you want it to and so then that leads to having to get a new one :D .

Oh well we all prefer different things.

One thing though WE CAN PLAY T2 AND YOU CANT!!! :bubbles:

[Maz]

I can too

[Mythril Gear]

Tribes 2? I dont care about tribes 2 anymore. My drive for computer games was killed along with my friendship to a certain person (who will remain unnamed). Now, I just hang out with Niq and play Puzzle Fighter everyday, and someday, I might just beat him thru sheer skill rather than dumb luck. I just don't play computer games anymore. Here, I'll quote Ian McConville: In one comic, he (Ian) is playing an unnamed FPS *cough*GOLDENEYE*cough* on the N64 with a few friends of his. After complaining about poor level selection, bad visibility, awkward controls, and a 4-player maximum, he heads off to play "Unreal Tournament, a real man's deathmatch". After being off for a while, he storms back onto thew couch, complaining "If I could get my computer to recognize my video card, I wouldn't be heere right now!". Computers are just too much hassle whn you can have just as much fun on a console system. You just gotta beat your friends up 4 at a time, rather than 50 at a time...

[Aluscia]

If you're referring to me, I'm going to come over there and shove a playstation controller where it'll hurt the most.

But, if you're not... :D I love puzzle fighter. I just plain kick ass with it... I can even beat people with Dan, although it is *really* hard, because of the way his blocks drop...

[Stang]

You played T2? :D

[RazorDragoon]

HEY?! what about me?!

Me and MG had a deal so i could play T2,by selling his computer he has gone back on half of our deal!:mad:

It was fun coming wit ya to UofT.
Seeing all your friends from the Games Club and kicking their asses in Goldeneye. They occused me of camping (thier punishment to campers is a 3vs1 match agaist the accussed)
I killed all three of them with the Magnum(auto aim was off)
And died only once!:D
They were so easy it was laughable!
:lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol

Although it was quite fun!

[Mythril Gear]

No, Laurelin, I'm not referring to you. ^^ It's a certain someone else, but thats another story. Anyhow... you mentioned the sacred game! YOU HAVE PUZZLE FIGHTER?!?!?!?!?!?!? MUST.......GET........PUZZLE......FIGHTER!!!!!!!!! Augh! It's the only game they ever play (well, then there's Smackdown 2, but wrestling's neither a game nor a sport so....), and therefore to earn my ane among the ranks of the elite, I must play puzzle fighter! But really, they just got a new DDR game and a DDR pad! Wai wai! We are planning to get another DDR pad soon too, then we will have a fake DDR arcade! yay! You know when N-chan and the others were playing DDR that one day... N-chan is amazing, but she is a mere speck in the sand when you see how Niq plays. He gets A+ rankings on the PARANOIA tracks! He's a DDR machine! Woah. Well, yah, we must get together and I will show off my leet Speed-5 Dan skills. I have crazy-ass skills! Ohh...we gotta play someday!

[Aluscia]

When was the last time you saw Eva-hime play DDR? She's *alot* better now.

[Mythril Gear]

Well, the last and only time I've seen her play was that one time when we were all at Justin's house... y'know? I've seen other ppls play tho, so I guess my comparison is a little skewed. You know, if u two want to gome to gamez night at U of T, N-chan can bring her DDR pad and then we'll have two to play with! It will be soo cool! Anyhow, sorry 'bout that... guess I need to be more observant.... ok well wee u later!
