    I think you can use something like TightVNC. I use this at school to connect to Linux boxes, but it says it works with Windows although I've never tried it.

    Game Developers on Gold Selling

    And they introduced something called "vitality" which is basically a rest system where you gain up to 400% XP per kill. On the PTS you probably had level 4 vitality (400% increase), which means at level 0 vitality it would take 4 times longer. If you play every day, you use up your vitality in...

    Tip: Don't review leaked movies...

    Reviewing movies is his job thats why he did it. No he was just doing his job by writing a review. Fox shouldn't have fired him because all its doing is bringing bad PR. If they didn't want movie reviews to come out early they should fix their security protocols during production. As I said...

    Tip: Don't review leaked movies...

    Fox is basically just strong-arming this guy as it was THEIR FAULT IT WAS LEAKED! I'm not sure what they are trying to accomplish here since he even gave the movie a decent review. I don't honestly know how something like this leaks beforehand. What are they sending DVD's around with this on it...

    Are Macs Really More Expensive than PCs?

    Rob it was on this page here that they discuss the battery life and they go into a bit of detail on the Mac's as well. EDIT: I should add, the main part I took from the article is this: Which lead to me to naturally assume its some OS difference that causes the battery life issues.

    Are Macs Really More Expensive than PCs?

    I saw the review of that Dell Studio 16 on AnandTech as well and it looks pretty sweet. The only thing thats really holding it back is the battery life. The Mac notebooks have way more battery life that any of the PC's. I would hope all the notebook vendors could pressure Microsoft to start...

    Are Macs Really More Expensive than PCs?

    The retail sector is almost built entirely on price alone. I would be surprised to find out if the most popular Mac at Apple stores isn't the cheapest one in the place. That being said, its hard for people to justify the difference when they really don't know WHY its better in the first place...

    Woot, free music is always good, but the clipping in a few of these samples is disturbing!

    Class Action Against Best Buy's Price-Matching Policy

    The fact of the matter is, retail can never compete dollar for dollar with Internet based companies. The cost just to move the products on the stores themselves negates any price difference immediately that BB could potentially pass on to the customer. Right off the bat they have to charge more...

    Asus Xonar Soundcard Drivers!

    I find it hilarious that you need a "lite" version when your signature has this in it: Intel Q6600 3.2ghz 4GB Mushkin DDR2-800 Gigabyte P35-DS3L EVGA 8800GTX 2xSeagate Barracuda 250gb 1xSamsung 1tb Samsung 2443BW 24" LCD 1920x1200 Logitech Z-5500 Logitech G15-B Logitech G7 Have you ever seen...

    Asus Xonar Soundcard Drivers!

    It wasn't a hang per say, but a dialog would pop up and say "hl2.exe has stopped working."

    Right, that's because the issue was specific to x64.

    Asus Xonar Soundcard Drivers!

    Wow its about time they fixed the hang on shutdown issue. I had this forever and while its not really a big deal, Vista logs all this stuff and pops up the compatility issue thing which checks online for solutions all the time because it sees the hl2.exe has received an error.

    Here is my desktop: I shamelessly copied this idea from this Wiki page where I saw a screen shot of a similar setup. I'm using a custom cursor from here. I'm also using Tahoma for all my fonts. Running KDE 3.5.6 with the Plastik theme.
