Darth Groovy Posted September 3, 2006 Author Posted September 3, 2006 The Matrix also "borrowed" a lot from the movie Dark City btw. ANOTHER underated film I happen to adore. But even THAT film openly borrowed alot from Fritz Lang's Metropolis. It goes on forever you see...
Pho3nix Posted September 5, 2006 Posted September 5, 2006 Meh, wireless mice suck in gaming, and that looks like a Microsoft mouse Buy yourself a decent Logitech Mx510 or something.
Pie™ Posted September 5, 2006 Posted September 5, 2006 It's a Creative set, and I don't really game a lot. Needed a new keyboard/mouse, and this was on sale for 20$. My only complaint so far is that the media controls don't work with WinAmp.
BongoBob Posted September 6, 2006 Posted September 6, 2006 I found hotshots part deux in that bin as well as crocodile dundee
IG-64 Posted September 6, 2006 Posted September 6, 2006 and that looks like a Microsoft mouse I've always used a Microsoft mouse. They don't look very fancy, but they seem fine to me.
ChAiNz.2da Posted September 6, 2006 Posted September 6, 2006 I've always used a Microsoft mouse. They don't look very fancy, but they seem fine to me. same here.. I lurve mine... I've thrown away 2 Logitechs in the same amount of time I've had my current MS one.. meh, to each their own... Speaking of mice, this will be my next purchase here soon (when available)... http://www.microsoft.com/hardware/gaming/ProductDetails.aspx?pid=092 Since I now have my Wacom Pad for graphic work, I no longer need to shop around for trackball mice.. this one however has (or will) the precision resolution if I need to revert. Up to 2000dpi at 20g's!
jon_hill987 Posted September 6, 2006 Posted September 6, 2006 OMG! I wan't one! I hope it dosn't cost too much. For the moment my cheap ass microsoft basic optical mouse is good. it does occasionaly "spaz out". whick must look funny online (in FPSs) as I end up looking at the ground ans spinning like mad till i lift the mouse of the desk for a second.
Commander Obi-Wan Posted September 6, 2006 Posted September 6, 2006 I just bought a pair sunglassed, though I can seem to find a pair that looks similar to them.
MrWally Posted September 6, 2006 Posted September 6, 2006 $5.50 DVD bin at Wal-Mart. You can find some pretty kick @$$ movies in that bin. So incredibly true... From that bin I bought: and (Which I have yet to see) The last time I was at walmart. =]
BongoBob Posted September 7, 2006 Posted September 7, 2006 I got a second dvi-vga adapter, and am running dual monitors in both Windows and Ubuntu (via TwinView). It's like sex
milo Posted September 7, 2006 Posted September 7, 2006 I got a second dvi-vga adapter, and am running dual monitors in both Windows and Ubuntu (via TwinView). It's like sex I've never really understood having dual monitors. What can you do with two that you can't do with just one?
Det. Bart Lasiter Posted September 7, 2006 Posted September 7, 2006 I've never really understood having dual monitors. What can you do with two that you can't do with just one?Use really high resolutions. Depending on the interface, GPU, and monitors, up to 5120x1600 pixels of digital goodness.
BongoBob Posted September 7, 2006 Posted September 7, 2006 Well, I love the fact that I can have fullscreen video in one monitor, and IMs or whatever in the other.
milo Posted September 7, 2006 Posted September 7, 2006 How does it work? Is it like one big screen, and the mouse can just move between monitors?
Darth Groovy Posted September 7, 2006 Author Posted September 7, 2006 $5.50 DVD bin at Wal-Mart. You can find some pretty kick @$$ movies in that bin. Man, all I ever see in there are chick flicks, hispanic films, and Action Jackson or some crap like that. The Hell....? On a positive note:
Pie™ Posted September 7, 2006 Posted September 7, 2006 ^ got the special edition, has a different cover.
BongoBob Posted September 7, 2006 Posted September 7, 2006 How does it work? Is it like one big screen, and the mouse can just move between monitors? Basically, but whenever you maximize a window, it only maximizes to the monitor it's in, and it doesn't stretch to both monitors.
Det. Bart Lasiter Posted September 7, 2006 Posted September 7, 2006 Basically, but whenever you maximize a window, it only maximizes to the monitor it's in, and it doesn't stretch to both monitors. If you use one of these, you can maximize applications to both screens (check the images for the triple monitor version, they've got screens of Oblivion running at 3840x1024).
Ratmjedi Posted September 7, 2006 Posted September 7, 2006 It's a 42" Plasma from Philips. I've just been watching DVD's ever since I got it. It's so beautiful. I also bought.
BongoBob Posted September 7, 2006 Posted September 7, 2006 If you use one of these, you can maximize applications to both screens (check the images for the triple monitor version, they've got screens of Oblivion running at 3840x1024). Yeah, that would be sweet, but my monitors are two completly different crt monitors, with a good inch or two inbetween the two monitors. Plus, I wouldn't want web pages and most things in 2000+ x 768 resolution.

El Sitherino Posted September 8, 2006 Posted September 8, 2006 New mobile phone. I've got mc chris' hijack for my ringtone, and Bebop music for messages.
Ratmjedi Posted September 8, 2006 Posted September 8, 2006 New mobile phone. I've got mc chris' hijack for my ringtone, and Bebop music for messages. Not a Slver. I've had the phone since March and I don't like it anymore. I don't like any Motorola Phone anymore. The only good thing about it is that it has itunes and that it's slim. I really want to transfer from Cingular to Verizon or Sprint but I have a two year contract.
