Yes in general I'd kind of agree with you on the temp thing Giz, but long term in the cold is a PITA. Everything you do, or places you go take more work and effort to do. Yeah, I'll stay in the warmer climate and still just visit the colder ones when wanted.
Well if you want a REAL annoying experience then install Windows Vista 64 Bit and run it for a while. I've tried it a few times but the hoops and hassles you have to keep going through just are not worth it for me on a production system. I'll still use it for like a Graphics station but not a daily user box.
Heck, not even Flash installs on native 64 Bit
If you don't do much on the PC and you have all new hardware then you might get along okay with 64 Bit, but once you start to do a little bit more then the tweaks and workarounds start to flourish. Too bad really since 64 Bit has been around for probably at least a decade if not more.
We had/have something similar for older .threads sites. I don't think it got much into the 'cash' aspect, but members could play and top scores were tracked and winners/losers of games. Pretty nice. I think the guy who wrote it took his toys and went home a while back tho
Just thought it was interesting. Don't think I'd play it much on an actual Forum (if really wanted to play I'd go to like Yahoo/MSN Games for more full fledged online games) but since some people were looking for other "community" features to add, that could be one more to add.
