[QUOTE=aVoN;17740234]Neat, but some tips for taking pictures: You are too close and you should wait a second pressing the snapshot-button [u]half[/u] to give auto-focus a chance to focus on the prop you want to photograph. Otherwise you get blurry pics like that.[/QUOTE] I would, but like I said, cell phone pictures. My blackjack has issues with sable pictures. If ever get my camera back I'll take some photos of it.
[QUOTE=ilolled;17731971]What the hell's the point of the Games explorer?[/QUOTE] To have a pretty folder where all your games are.
Yay! I got my windows 7 launch party pack today. It comes with a jigsaw :)
[QUOTE=Generic Monk;17747534]To have a pretty folder where all your games are.[/QUOTE] I use steam for that

[QUOTE=JohnEdwards;17749931]aww damn MSDN only gives you 3 keys[/QUOTE] Wow. ONLY 3!?! Some of us only got 1.
Man, I wish I had an MSDN account.

[QUOTE=DrPompo;17750439]im one or two days away from getting Win7! Woooot, goddamn im gonna loose half of my PC because i will probably forget to back up som stuff.[/QUOTE] I am rather forgetful to, that's why I keep my stuff backed up on three hard drives.
[QUOTE=PaperStrike;17750072]Wow. ONLY 3!?! Some of us only got 1.[/QUOTE] Oh you can do 64bit 32bit 32bit
Damn, I regret not signing up for that House Party thing.
[QUOTE=Panda X;17734526]A central location to launch all your games.[/QUOTE] It's called the Start Menu. :butt:
Okay, So I am trying to go from XP to Win7 RC1, A few questions, Will I have to format both my drives? Two, Will I be able to upgrade from rc1 to Release with no problems?
it only goes Vista-Windows7 not xp-windows 7
So full format is needed for both?
Is everyone going to actually throw a party?

[QUOTE=Rougelead;17752409]Is everyone going to actually throw a party?[/QUOTE] Getting all excited about a Windows release probably sets you apart from the people who have actual friends and fun parties. Most people signed up for the free Windows copy I'd assume :P
[QUOTE=JohnEdwards;17749931]aww damn MSDN only gives you 3 keys[/QUOTE] If you're a MSDN-AA subscriber, I'm a Visual Studio Team System Team Suite with MSDN Premium subscriber and I've generated over ten keys. Also guys, x86 keys work with x64 too, they aren't different.

[QUOTE=lettuce_head;17747868]Yay! I got my windows 7 launch party pack today. It comes with a jigsaw :)[/QUOTE] I knew this Win 7 party thing was a bit sad, but a jigsaw? It's going to be to most subdued party in history, with library levels of quietness.
Well I think I might install Windows 7 today. My bro did it yesterday so I spent a little while tinkering with his copy and it convinced me totally. However for some reason his hdd wasn't formatted before Windows 7 was installed even though it said in the guide/help menu that the hdd WILL be formatted so you have to back up and shit.

[QUOTE=ilolled;17759024]Fresh But I did switch from x86 to x64[/QUOTE] How much RAM do you have?
