Better than Starforce or any DRM, just have everyone on a big server.

Kinda hard to convert the nation which ranks 15th in the world in overall bandwidth to a scheme like this.

All of my computer components are made in China - most of the entertainment software on my computer is made in Russia.  Now you King, happen to be in a "pocket" of very high bandwidth - it's good to remember that when evaluating future claims by large, bloated American software companies.

I don't imagine most Americans are upgrading their systems right now.  PS3 sales are up however.

Things are changing for sure, but I'm real "gray" on the direction.

I bought an Apple Iphone GS3 at Xmas.  Worst connectivty I've ever had.  It has a lot of nice icons though.  I've never had so many dropped calls in my life.

You want to know imo what is an other drop and bad from industry is the format 16:9 for computers.. The best format to me is 16:10... When you get a laptop for work not to watch movies... well you will spend you time scrolling up and down all the time it's so bad.. We need a much higher resolution on the vertical.....we enter an era of great mediocrity....

"Much higher resolution in the vertical" +1

I've been thinking this for years and your the first person I ever heard say it.  That's why I like your "deep" vertical cockpits so much - much more natural.....
