| Hell, I don't get why they just don't stop selling the game completely, and only sell CD Keys in boxes. Then, when you get home to log in to their website, put the key in and it downloads a small package that hooks you up to their servers, where the game actually is. Then, you just play the game ov... |

| The 186.18 drivers give me a BSOD on boot about an unpaged something or other. I'm guessing their inclusion of stereo glasses detection is screwing things up. Not a big whoop, the only issue I've had hasn't been fixed in about 10+ revisions anyhow. |

You could fetch one of the many hex converter/calculators out there (windows own calc can do this in scientific mode) or even just use google:

Projectors have a higher maintenance cost from the bulbs sure, but if you take the size vs price into account, they're less expensive then a similarly sized flat panel.
How expensive would it be to get say 3 plasma/lcd that are 100+in diag. in size each? |

Just a thought about that optical drive, perhaps the sata 1.5/3.0 settings might be affecting it? or maybe something else in the bios it doesn't like?
Were it PATA I'd suggest checking the cable/item order but not sure what could happen on a sata one. |

Tough luck, hope next works for you.
Personnaly I'm waiting for the next popcorn hour media tank, the new revision includes a spot to put a full-sized optical drive, such as a blu-ray one.

I'm placing this resolution back in the "untested" list until we get REAL confirmation.
I'll test it once they release a demo for it, my rule-book includes a no-demo=no-purchase entry. |

| Though an odd resolution I can understand why they wouldn't go for 3840x1024 or 5040x1050. Those would target high-end users, the gtx285 and 4890x2 and whatever. Which is all likelyhood is still the minority of the target market. With 2880x900 you get a larger target. Of course this flys in the face... |
