I've not had to deal with a BIOS limit on a drive in awhile. I'm not sure what will or won't work in this case. I guess it really depends how that software to "work around" the limit works.

He and Levy discovered that comet that collided with Jupiter.

Cool shot!

Tactical apps will come with the creation of equally powerful solid-state lasers.

I'm wondering what laws/rules THAT broke!

I think the idea of taking out a lone vehicle with it is the most promising. Zero collateral damage and zero time of flight. Literally if you can see it you can hit it.

While that 37 is based on the Testor's model that came out back then, that A-12 is just wrong.

If it's under 80, I'm cold!

You can always do it the super-old-fashioned way...edit the .msn file with notepad and do it manually!

Don't forget DCS: Black Shark! Fighter Ops is certainly no less than a year out. SoW: BoB likewise won't be out before this time next year.

Note he's making a mostly symbolic gesture. When CFE was implemented their conventional forces were far more formidable then they are now. Well, actually they were IDENTICAL to what they are now, just fewer of them. Russia has done little modernizing since the collapse of the USSR. I mean, the resumption of occasional bomber flights is now big news. It's all political pressure against the US and to show those at home he's not towing the line. Not that it matters much, as this administration has shown it doesn't alter course from foreign opinions.

You didn't know anyone named Druyun, did you?

What we have is one group taking advantage of a totally unrelated problem. Yes, they are pushing to get more F-22s to replace more F-15s. This grounding merely gives them more fuel. This was bound to happen at some point anyway because the Eagles are only getting older. I just was expecting it post-2010.

Oooh, a USAAC scheme! Inspiring me to fly some FE this week!

So, where's the humidity? That looks pretty cold to me.

The F4 campaigns are designed to be like "real" campaigns. There's no possible way for one plane to shoot everything down. You go up, do what your mission calls for, and fly home. Then you pick a new mission and go up again. As for whether mission is accomplished or not, that's not quite so easy to determine. Sometimes it's obvious, like "destroy a power plant" or "destroy armored column." When it's less defined like CAS, SEAD, fighter sweep, etc, you just go up and do what you can with the fuel and ammo you have then go home. The game engine determines if you did it or not, but as long as you knock out targets you'll help the campaign along.

*waves hand* Those were not alien spacecraft. That was swamp gas reflecting the light of the planet Venus. Nothing unusual happened. Move along.

They look nice, but I have my doubts about being able to execute graphics of that quality on the scale OFP accustomed us to with decent performance on even a mid-range system!

You ever notice that as the size of an organization grows, the collective intelligence seems to decrease?

I can't recall seeing a thing I've not figured out. Of course, I don't spend a lot of time outdoors, so...

Gotta love "Stan"!

Whew...I finally have the energy to post here...I spent hours exerting the Force to calm this down, it wasn't easy. What, no appreciation for my efforts? Maybe I should take my all-powerful mystical field that explains everything and go home!!! Nah, group hug!

I remember when they filmed True Lies in Miami. That stupid shoot screwed up traffic for days! The funny part is how many movies have used the old 7 Mile bridge for scenes when you can see the (obviously newer and better looking) new 7 Mile bridge right next to it.

MS has had it in for the gameport since XP's release. They support USB for inputs only at this point. My old SB Audigy had a functional gameport under XP, but when I replaced it my mobo's port was worthless (mega spike city). Like 3.5" floppies, ISA, and VESA LB video, gameports are now obsolete.

I plan on getting a 360 after the GPU is scaled down (hoping to avoid any RRODs) and AC6 is one I plan on getting at that point. I've thought about getting AC-X for my PSP, too.
