Right now, I just moved interstate, and started a new job, so I have my hands full just getting my NANY entry done!  I didn't know that about CD Projekt- I updated the entry.  Interesting that the Witcher is available on every platform but GoG.

good luck on the new job! incidentally Steam is the only digital distribution system that i am using actively. i looked through GoG's catalogue as well and found some oldies that i'd love to replay if and when i have the time.

i don't use iTunes but have noticed these articles from Lifehacker, maybe they could give you some pointers.

nice write-up, wraith808. it is very useful and will definitely come in handy. :up: hopefully you can continue with other distributors when you have the time. btw, GoG.com is run by CD Projekt, known for their recent hit, The Witcherw.

Steam is one of the better platform for digital distribution out there and they have quickly carved out a niche for themselves. that's one of the reason why they lead the market.

for Steam i've already added you as my buddy. you can also join the DonationCoder (DC) group, some of us are already there. though i'm not sure how the invite works. maybe Deozaan can help you.

I'm having a problem, though, and wonder if anyone else has experienced it, too.  As soon as I make the first click in the third screen, my computer crashes.  I have tried this several times, and have unchecked the full screen option.  Is this a known bug?  If not, are there any suggestions for how I can get this to work?

since the game is based on Adobe Flash, you can try updating your version of Flash.

something like Process Explorer could give a better picture of what's running from which folder. you can also post the screenshot of that process explorer window here for someone to take a look at. plus as Target mentioned, use a startup manager tool (e.g Startup Control Panel) to identify if there is any new uninvited guest hitching a ride.

Similar to Find and Run Robot, its system search wasn't quite as in-depth, but its default interface is larger and easier to read.

shouldn't it read "Unlike Find and Run Robot, its system search wasn't quite as in-depth..." ?

That means that I have no more "slow" internet speed at 10 Mbps with unlimited bandwidth for less than $30 USD... (Yep... that's the slow one where I live now... but only for another couple days...)

do you have a url to one of the ISP's advertisement? this will be a good way to rub it in on the local ISPs here.

fwiw, the 50% offer is now extended until the 3rd of January but as Lashiec noted on the other thread, it's best to wait until the last day.

in a rare sense of vanity, the location bar in Firefox 3 is called the 'awesomebar' so do a search on that as well.

hehe.. Steam is quite famous for its xmas sale. one of today's special is Defense Grid: The Awakening which is 75% off. i'm still holding out for Deus Ex: GOTY edition. :)

a good insight on the whole operations. blowing $20million on the project and still without an end, that is telling something. i wonder what happened to ken silverman who wrote the original Build engine?

you can also try Alcohol 52% Free Edition which is the lesser version of 120% and is for private, non-commercial, single home computer use. This version allows creation of only 6 virtual drives while the retail version supports up to 31 virtual drives.

Torchlight is an action RPG à la Diablo, however it's single-player only.

a fantastic deal for fantastic games. i tried the Machinarium demo some time back but hadn't the time to commit, now seems to be a good time. thanks for the heads-up, Lashiec.
