    • By Role Playing I meant, like, playing a game in here. Like having your own battlefleet and battles and stuff like that. I don't care if there is role-playing like this is a bar, but not like this is a game.

      So, that's the new Imac, eh? No CD Drive? I can't tell. I don't know, I don't really like how they don't have a disk drive - I guess you can just buy third party. Any other real specs on this sucker?

      They do indeed have a CD drive. You can chose between a basic CD Recorder, a CD Recorder/DVD Player combo, and the SuperDrive, which plays and records both CDs and DVDs.

      I don't have much trouble with the lack of floppy drive. Between my iMac and G4 I have one external floppy drive, and I haven't used it in months.

    • You guys should check out the Apple site for the specs! IT'S KILLER! But I bet you already have. ๐Ÿ˜„

      I keep getting into... scuffels over Apple vs. Microsofties and I always wind up shutting the othe person out! ๐Ÿ˜›

      My Dad said that we'll get one soon. But he isn't too sure beause the G5 will be released some time next year...

      But he says that he will get the G4 iMac with the tac returns we get back. But I'd rather have a different color... like Graphite. I've grown attached to my G3 iMac SE Graphite and my subwoofer, sound sticks, CD/DVD, and External harddrive matches the Graphite color scheme. The white is really nice and I am growing fond of it too, for Graphite seems dull, as far as white - or snow - seems to be lively.

      Has anyone seen the video from the Apple site? When you first click on the iMac animated picture there will be a link to the left to watch a video. It's a nice video. I like the commercial part they do of the iMac 'dancing' and twirling! It reminds me of the lamp from Pixar - which Jobs is the founder/owner of and uses, of course, the new iMac, I suppose. But I know he uses G4s and G3s. It'd be wise to use the new G4 iMac...

      Wanna buy my ol' Mac SE dinosaur? ๐Ÿ˜‰ It'll be an antique in about ten years, really.

      I think I'm in love with the new iMac. How can anyone say Macs suck? Do these people even know what a Mac is like? Do they realize that Macs are so great? Or were they just born stupid?

    • Heh. Everyone at my school likes PC's better except me and a kid ironically named Mac. I started saying that Microsoft sucked, and everyone asked why I thought that. So began a 3 week arugment that ended with no victor, as the PC users wouldn't look at fact sheets. ๐Ÿ˜‰

      Seems good so far. Now we just have to wait until it's actually the speaker's story and not the history.

      Yeah, me too... like it's attached to my skull! This dinosour is almost six years old and it is still running. I sit here listening to that ever increasing whir eminating from the vertically mounted hard drive as I wait for the next page to load through my 33k modem which has a 20k connection. I think we need to drag it outside, shoot it and bury it like an old dog. Then we need to buy a new imac :D.

      You should know if you ever visited the boards about your Screenname ๐Ÿ˜‰

      At (url="http://"http://www.magleague.com")www.magleague.com(/url) you keep track of multyplayer Ares stats through their league. There are clans and they compete with each other. Skyblade just got all the memebers he needed. I'm one of them

      The story, click the link.

      So Skyblade, what about your new story?

    • The boards about my screenname? Try the boards about the game named after the greek god whom I also based my screenname on. ๐Ÿ˜› I was inspired by a unit we did in school on greek mythology; not the game. I really hate the name and would much prefer a different one. It popped into my head when I was trying to come up with a new handle in a hurry. I have thought of about 2,000 things I would rather have, but once I registered a bunch of stuff under ares or ares1, I didn't have much choice as to whether I wanted to keep it or not. Especially not now, with my 1150-ish post number and two mighty karma points. ๐Ÿ˜‰

    • All the bar members squint up to the sun as a drailing dust cloud emerges from the afterburner of a horribly weathered spacecraft, under escort by 14 other indescernable fighters. With a shudder, the vessel (now clearly identifiable as a wraith) collapses in a large heap of metal. A tall man crawls from the wreckage, shouts to no one in particular, and waves goodbye to the rapidly receeding squadron.

      Had a great time on B.net, hows it goin?;)
      When I saw the Aerobrake (we'll have to think of a new, spiffy acronym for this one, won't we?), I headed over and saw a re-make of the long lost BB... sniff... A remake, but a bar, nonetheless. This seems to add to the general "chatting around" ideal that was held by many of the old BB members... (loud, false cough) Mac! (/loud, false cough)

      /hops on elevated stage.
      If there's a Shade in the joint, I'd like to inform him that I'm really- uh- thankfull!- Yeah that's it, thankfull!- for the um- er- extrodinary usage of- uh- non-derogitory-comparison-with-Lyra over in another topic. I believe you said someone else (a sex-maniac-exophobe kinda guy, if I recal corectly) was "Worst than-well, worst than anything." (Note the Norweigan "no space" used between the dash and w ;)) I was extremely surprised that you didn't use me in there. That alone inspired me to return to the ASW boards...
      /watches with bemusement at the mass lynching of Shade
      /watches with dissatisfication that, occupied with Shade's execution, everyone has momentarily forgotten his speach.
      /falls painfully as he realizes there was no elevated stage in the first place.

      PS- You can breathe now Mac- I don't intend to pester you about returning to BFS. I don;t intend to, the rules got a bit too complicated. Rather a bit more than "a bit," in fact. More like, "A large, super-nova sized bit." If IV doesn't get too advanced, than I'll join it. I like the old webstory rules by roostersw. Those were the days. ๐Ÿ˜‰

      Replays can be run at up to speed Fastest x16 (way too fast for most things), by using the speed up and slow down buttons next to play/pause. let me know when you get Brood War installed (I'm assuming you don't have it yet) and I'll try to find time to send you a batch of them.
