Side point: if the OP'er didn't want to contend with populating the FP links...couldn't the mods be allowed to take care of it?-Stoic Joker (September 12, 2013, 01:30 PM)
We know that feeling: the one where you sit down, wait for a new game to finish downloading and installing, start it for the first time, and want it to rock. The intro sucks you in, you press a button to shoot, jump, or talk for the first time, and then it's suddenly three a.m. We know that feeling, and the one afterwards of knowing that not only does a game rock, but that it was worth every dollar you spent on it.
We hope every game you play on Origin will meet this high bar, and we're happy to say that starting today, we can guarantee that we'll make things right if you decide the game you just bought didn’t live up to your expectations.
The new Origin Great Game Guarantee works like this: You may return EA full game downloads (PC or Mac) purchased on Origin for a full refund--within 24 hours after you first launch the game, within seven days from when you purchased it, or within the first seven days after the game's release date if you pre-ordered it (whichever of these conditions happens first).
If something doesn't work out—you aren’t riveted by the storyline, or sucked in by the action, or even just if the game doesn't play well with your video card—we’ve got your back.
Requesting a refund is quick and easy. Just visit your order history and click the “request a refund” link next to your recent purchase, answer a few quick questions, and we’ll take it from there.
For more details, you can check out the full Origin Great Game Guarantee policy details posted on Origin.com. The Origin Great Game Guarantee is effective as of today in 20 countries. Like the improved Origin Store, we are rolling out the program worldwide over the next few weeks, and everyone will be covered by the Origin Great Game Guarantee by the end of September.
I don't think my idea needs to have anything but a positive impact on discussions -- i see it as enhancing the discussion because the best links and new discoveries mentioned in the free-ranging discussion can get added to the first post so that they aren't overlooked, and new people coming into the discussion can educate themselves by reading some of the external links so that they can join in the discussion in an intelligent way. It would open up discussions to more people, something i think we desperately need.-mouser (September 11, 2013, 04:34 PM)
You're right, of course. I didn't mean it was exactly that. I just figured if they can enable access to your library on multiple accounts, then maybe they can now allow you to be logged in to the same account on multiple computers.-Deozaan (September 11, 2013, 05:38 PM)
It sounds to me like this Family Sharing will basically enable that feature. After all, if your library is shared and visible on another machine while you're logged in elsewhere, why couldn't you install the software without having to switch to/from offline mode? But I'm not really sure.-Deozaan (September 11, 2013, 03:31 PM)
Based on what's been completed of this review I decided to try out the program and compare it against my current editor of choice - Komodo Edit - because the overall philosophy behind them seems similar. Since I mostly deal with HTML I could never justify purchasing Komodo IDE for close to $400.
So far I have to say my first impression seems pretty accurate. There's a lot for me to learn to translate what I do in Komodo Edit to Zeus but I'm already very impressed with the amount of work put into making it work with so many freely available tools and proactively providing solutions (via the support forum) for numerous scenarios.-Vurbal (September 11, 2013, 03:48 PM)
Yes but what I'm asking for is for the first post in the thread to be kept updated with new information (and collected links from followup posts); that way the first post in a thread is a sort of constantly updated table of summary and list of reading material to inform the pages of discussion posts that follow.-mouser (September 11, 2013, 01:30 PM)
Oh well... I'm back to looking for a reader. The Old Reader bites the dust.-wraith808 (July 29, 2013, 04:28 PM)

As for the actual service/product - looks interesting. It seems that there are more like this popping up. But "email"? Man... I'm so sick of email. It's just so broken. I really think we need to scrap it and just start over with something new. A simple communications platform for letters, short messages, attachments, audio, video, audio/video/rich media messages, etc. People keep dumping resources into a broken platform.-Renegade (September 05, 2013, 11:45 PM)
Any recommendation for hardware?
