I don't see why I would have to. I'm not as concerned with my XP computer seeing the Vista laptop. I really don't get why it won't let me see the folders.

True. "All About The Games" Should really be changed to "PC Games", that would reduce confusion.

I'm still working on Medium, I first wanted to get all 5s on Easy, which I accomplished early last week, and just haven't had time to play it lately (a co-worker of mine let me borrow Shivering Isles, so I'm going through that as well as playing C&C 3, so busy =P) I calculated that if they relea...

Vista Question - File Sharing

So, I've got two vista questions, but I figured I'd break them up into two threads, so one question doesn't get burried by the other. I recently bought my fiance a new laptop, nothing too fancy, but here are the specs: Acer Aspire Core Duo 1.73 GHz 1 GB DDR2 533 120 GB Intel GMA950 Vista Home Premiu...

Guitar Hero 2 for 360

Who else has been playing GH2 since it came out? I am absolutely loving it, but today, I was a little hacked off at Activision. They came out with the first set of track packs to download. Three songs per pack, 500 MS points each, or about $6.25 US. I personally think that is a little much for the n...

Over at the Quakecon forums, they have thread right now where they're debating which is better: the Antec 900 or the Lian Li PC-V1200Bplus II.

I personally prefer the Antec. I'm gunna go to Frys over the weekend, and if they have it for close to the Outpost price, I'd be tempted to pick it up.

I got a X2 4200 in my main rig and my work computer has a C2D E6400. I ran Super PI on both of them (that's about as far as I can go for benchmarking at work =P) and they were pretty equal. If I were to build a new machine, it would be hard to say which cpu I'd go with. Gun to my head, I think I wou...

Guitar Hero 2 for 360

Anybody else pick it up yesterday? I did and love it. I've been going through withdrawls since I traded in my PS2. We also picked up my Gamestop's last extra controller, so my fiance and I were able to rock out to co-op mode, very fun. I am a little disappointed that they didn't have any downloads r...

meh, I say. I don't see the point to have to spend all that money. Sure, you get a larger hard drive and a HDMI port, but I don't really need that much storage on my 360 and I'm getting great HD-ness out of the component cables I'm using.

Only problems with those are that I don't think they'll run BF2 or 2142.
