Laughing Fat Man

You better stay away from my twinkies, lil guy!

My home file/print server (it's also a DC/WINS/DHCP/DNS server) is Windows server 2003 running on a P3 500 with 768MB PC100 RAM. It works fine for 2 people (Well, 1, since my wife doesn't really do anything but email) I don't have anything like IIS or the extra memory/cpu intensive stuff running (My web/email/ftp etc server is RedHat) Norm is definately not wrong, 2003 Server IS meant for dual CPUs, especially if you are running IIS/Exchange/SQL/etc but for just file/print services, a single celeron 500 with 512MB RAM should be fine. As for OS, it really doesn't matter that much. You could run one of the Windows server OSes, or even just XP. There are some advantages for using the server OS, but if you have 5 or less people, it doesn't matter as much. It really depends on how much you want to spend on it. You could even run a version of Linux if you're comfortable setting up network access (I'd recommend SAMBA instead of NFS)-Fatty

I wrote that to everyone, not just Norm or Klif.

Best in what way?-Fatty

I am someone http://www.fa-thearmory.net/modules/PNphpBB2/images/private/staff.gif that is giving everyone a friendly reminder not to have fights in the forums. If you have a difference in opinion, there are better ways to let others know them than to "pick fights" This is a friendly place, even if we have to break some arms to make it so!

Settle down now, kids, and play nice before I sit on you both.

B-Cell showed me how to do that. I use a different xhair file for each weapon. You just edit the "weapon".txt files and put the name of the xhair.spr in there. Here's some examples... (Change the line that says crosshair to add a new xhair sprite file) weapon_uzi.txt: crosshair 320 d-green-yellow 24 24 24 24 crosshair 640 d-green-yellow 24 24 24 24 weapon_m60.txt: crosshair 320 mg_b_50x50 0 0 50 50 crosshair 640 mg_b_50x50 0 0 50 50 the first 2 numbers after are start x/y coordinates in the file listed and the last 2 are size. Works like a champ! -Fatty

I'm using them now for some of the weapons.. They are very nice. Thanks, D!-Fatty

Follow the link in his first post, he has the downloadable files there... Very nice crosshairs. I think I will replace the black rectangle my uzi uses (half of my crosshairs are missing, so I just get big black blocks ) -Fatty

I think so too, but mainly for the less well known artists/bands. The big names always get enough airplay and people will continue to buy their products. I don't buy many new cds anymore, but not because I download mp3s.. I just can't find the stuff I like anymore. When I do, they are $60+ European or Japanese imports. Blah. I only buy cds AFTER I have heard more than half of the music on them, mainly for the same reasons Mac stated... 1 CD = 14 songs - 2 good songs overplayed on the radio =12 really crappy songs...A complete waste of $15 -Fatty

It's not out yet, I think they said Sept 19th release date. The demo rocks!

SWEET!

Been there, it's not so bad... just because they have 7 cars side by side on a two lane road going 50MPH... I've seen worse! As long as I don't get run over by a jeepney

I used to work about 2 miles from the White House.. I remember a few hotels there but none of the names. Unfortunately, other than museums, there's not a lot to do in DC.

You may not believe this.... ......Maryland drivers are worse I live in Virginia, about 20 minutes from Washington DC, but I rarely go there. I haven't even been to many of the museums in about 12 years.Have fun and try to stay safe

I like it much better, the main page is a lot less cluttered, and everything is in one place.Great job, Gator!

I *think* it's a M2 .50 Cal MG.

Everyone's entitled to their own opinions (Even Kywalker), but at least direct your responses to the appropriate party :wink: A simple "This offends me as a Canadian" would have been sufficient.Don't always assume an American is responsible for what you find offensive, even if it usually is.

You're just jealous!! Anyway, people come, people go.. that's how these things always work. Fortunately, most leave on good terms and are still "part of the community" if not part of the clan.

Kami's funny, but not as cute as Ky.. :wink: I haven't seen that much angst since I worked for AOL

Woo and stuff!

I knew he would do that! Sorry, wrong answer. I knew YOU would do that......... But, my young bitter apprentice, I knew YOU knew I would do that, but I did it anyway, because your reactions are so cute!

I knew he would do that!

I want this:http://www.cnn.com/2003/BUSINESS/06/26/australia.metalstorm/index.htmlI want it! I want it!!!!!!!

Comment away, Ky, I don't get offended by anything you think or say. It's a joke, not a political debate anyway.
