Hope it lives up to the hype, loved Kotor 1 and 2, just hope this lives up to the standard, anyone played it? does it live up to the hype? And Forza Motorsport, would really want to get it if anyone can tell me if its worth the scores I've been seeing round the net. Cheers Big Ears!

Open source is software made for Non-profit, so its free, and if you was a developer you could look at the source code and tinker with it, closed-source is the opposite, developers don't allow you to look at their source code, and it isn't likely to be free, e.g Linux = open source, Windows = Closed Source!

Pro Evolution Soccer 4 with 4 players , and cos I'm a snooker / pool fanatic, there's a great online game called Carom3d, and its FREE , best fun is had playing in teams 2v2 / 3v3, chat while your playing aswell, load up your playlist and enjoy your fav tunes, I've lost hours and days at a time on that game

Its just a new way of doing user interfaces, the options there but whether developers use it is up to them, sort of like flash for the web, good to have more options for the user interface, you can already download betas of avalon and practice developing interfaces with it, can't wait to see what people do with it

Pro Evolution Soccer 4, football gaming at its finest, the best multiplayer fun you can have, I have fun with shooters like Halo 2 and all, but nothing gets me more excited than scoring a world class goal , or watching your friends face as you score, it gets me more passionate than any game I've ever played, just wish I could one day play it online

I would go back 10+ years, buy loads of shares in Microsoft, Google, bet on France to win the world cup, stay out of bad investments I have already made, stop gambling, and have a rich and wealthy life , its nice to dream :)or maybe the 60s when the women were more up for it!

Hiya guys,Just wondering, does anybody know what cache is and how to implement it say for something like wordpress, would it be really useful, i.e cacheing sql queries so theres a lot less stress on the Xisto servers, for instance, if you only update your site once a day, does cache work by saving that query and only updating once per day (or whatever you set), so the visitors to your site don't automatically keep making new sql queries but is already cached, I've looked around on google, has anybody here got any experience, would be really helpful, thx.

I really really want to believe, I say yes, but have no proof, just feels like universe is soooo huge, we can't possibly be the ONLY living beings, just a matter of time before we go raving on spacestation 01

p.s I almost forgot, Legend of the Overfiend :-D

Old school :-Ninja Scrolland the OEDO 808 episodes (3)Never did like Doomegalopolis or whatever its called, seen so many but those two stand out above others, not exactly a popular choice but there what I remember and enjoyed most, oh yeah, Street Fighter the first manga was awesome, surprised no one has mentioned it.

For those that haven't heard, you can use both at the same time , try yagoohoogle.com

oops, ignore the Nod32 :S, quite right Styx, thats an AV app. BTW, forgot to add XPs own firewall, does anybody just use that on its own?

KFC's Zinger meals are very nice, chicken is filling.But I love Burger Kings Chips, I'm in the UK btw, might be different to you guys but the chips here are like crispy and has some sort of bread crum coating or something, its just yummmmmmmmmmmmy

Looks real professional, agree about the shoutbox, hate having to scroll right, like your idea about the cacheing, do you notice a big improvement? how does it work, is the site kept in memory on the server? does it load from the database? whats the difference?Thanks

You got some talent there!

Gmail definately, can download mail from it to my PC (Outlook), website loads fast, Nice features (e.g Rich Txt Format), and its BIG , BTW, I mentioned on an earlier post but I still have tons of invites, so if anybody wants one, just pm me

So..What firewalls do you guys use and recommend, which do you think is the most effective, looking around on the internet there are alot of mixed favourites and it can be hard to choose, hopefully this post can help a few out.

UK, 1mb connection, you guys are Blaaaaaaaaazing!

Firefox is great, one other good thing about it is pages with CSS look proper compared to IE at the moment, a good example is if you go here :- http://http://meyerweb.com/eric/css/edge/complexspiral/demo.html and watch how the transparent blocks of text works flawlessly and then compare that page in Internet Explorer

I am currently learning C++ and QT, I'm just wondering how many of your guys develop for windows specifically for do you target mac and linux too, or are you developing games?Most important is the uptake of the .Net framework, just how many people are developing for it, is it really as big / important as everyone on the net suggests?Would love to hear everyones views!

Its definately easier to use, I tried out Linux a while back and had such a headache messing about with the fonts, not sure it compares today but back then, it took alot of work to get screen fonts to look sharp and crisp, I took XP and windows for granted, they make life so easy we forget stuff like there font technology and ease of use, mind you though, this easeness comes at a price (vulnerability), my linux box always felt secure!

Hi all,I currently learning C++ and the .net framework, .net is MS big next thing when it comes to connecting web services e.g client apps and web apps communicating with each other via SOAP / XML, I've been reading alot about the technology and it looks like its going to take over in a big way, I'm writing this here at team17 as I think we have enough of a wide audience to take an important poll (in the eyes of developers and users), I'm thinking of whether to develop my next app in this framework or stick to the original framework each having their pro's and cons.I'm just wondering how many of you guys know about the .net framework, do you care about it? are you developing for it? do you have it installed? do you find it annoying to have to install the framework as an extra for the software to work? (e.g like the java virtual machine for java programs), This would help me and many greatly as we can see just how important .net applications are.Whats your views?

Great tutorial, thought you was going to talk about virtual drives like Daemon, learn something new every day here

I deeply apologise and hope you will accept my apologies, I should of used the quote button, I hope you guys like my other tutorials and not let this one represent me too badly, I have spent a long time today contributing as much good useful and helpful knowledge that I could, again I apologise for this post, this won't happen again.

Hiya guys and gals, I have PLENTY of invites, would be a pleasure to give them away :)Just pm me with your email addy 200 Invites to give away Things I want in return, hmmm, if its not too much trouble, click that little green icon (+rep) Keep asking, cos google keeps topping up my accounts !
