  2. I take that back...it will be much sooner: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
  3. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA (international poster) (and more: http://www.superherohype.com/news/topnews.php?id=6603 )
  4. Does it also have a -10 on the initiative roll for the opponent as well? Be very careful about posting info from RPG websites. It was intended to give the VFs a means of carrying durable armor without the added weight and explain why a VF could crash into a building without disintegrating on impact like a normal plane.
  5. That's cuz you scared all of them away...It's your fault. As for me, this place, MechaTalk, Gundam Evolution, and lurking it various tech forums.
  6. The trailer will be on I am Legend and he 6-minute prologue will be on the IMAX version of the movie. Both of which will be in theaters...tomorrow. Don't worry...it will be up soon enough.
  7. Fan speculation. They haven't put out the actual designations yet. I'd prefer the use of "Hikaru-colors" or "Focker-colors". The VF-17D only had 2 head lasers. The VF-0S only had 2 head lasers. For all we know, the "Hikaru-colored" VF-25 could be a VF-25A.
  8. Hallelujah wanted to "play" with Soma, just like he "played" with the cannon fodder Tieren pilot. That low-power setting seems to be used a lot...The linear rifles have that capability as well (low-power/higher ROF/less damage vs. high-power/low ROF/more damage).
  9. The Hikaru-colored VF-25's head doesn't look right. It looks too Photoshopped.

  11. Yes. I've been running the MBS page through machine translators but when I see "New UN Spacy" (or better "New UN military), something doesn't sound right with that.
  12. The Galaxy fleet could be where she's originally from. This "Fairy of Galaxy" alludes to that. I think she's real. If she was a virtual idol, they probably would have mentioned it.
  13. Server-side, Linux/UNIX is an ideal set-up. My workplace has several clusters running Linux or some variant of UNIX or BSD. But on the desktop side, Windows and Macs dominate, and that so far, won't change much anytime soon.
  14. If one could find a way to make subbed anime profitable, I'm sure companies will get behind it. But until then...
  15. It's interesting to say the least...There are a few Wing-elements in there, but I would say it's still a bit early to figure where this show is going.
  16. Discusion thread: http://macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=21183 It has been licensed by Bandai Visual USA.
  17. Chances are, we will not see the VF-24. It appears to be just a design note as opposed to an actual fighter. Many VFs that are mentioned are never seen but are mentioned as design notes.
  18. Whether or not the know wasn't my point. They do know. The problem is do they understand the impact it has. They need to think more than just DVDs/BluRay/HD-DVD. No one format really stands out.
  19. If you don't like a boot loader like Boot Camp, you could run Parallels or WMware.
  20. I highly doubt we will see a VF-24.
  21. Actually, PC World got a laptop that was faster than the MBP. The Eurocom D900C Phantom-X, which was tested after they printed the article. But the $5158 US price tag will probably make many reconsider....really fast. Concerning the Macbook, you can sure find something cheaper. And better. I can price a XPS 1330 for cheaper. But it comes down to what you want. After how-many-years of Windows, I was ready to get away from Windows. Linux was one alternative. But the marketplace started opening up to Macs when I started looking. And since my experience with Macs was limited, I felt this was a better choice. Thankfully at time, Macs started using Intel chips, so it made my hardware comparisons easier. When I actually started using OS X in the field, I found it to be quite a pleasant experience and not so bad once I started using it. Another thing that sealed my deal was Boot Camp. I could run Windows on the Mac so if i needed to run certain applications that needed a native Windows environment, I could easily switch to Windows. But that's not to say OS X is not without its flaws, but I found the Mac side of things generally easier to deal with than a PC.
  22. Concerning ep. 10:
  23. But then we get to the argument, why do I want to read subtitles when I'm watching something? Which leads us to the dub/sub debate, which isn't the point. The decline in DVD sales has been coming since the rise of digital distribution. The same happened to CDs when digital distribution bursted on the scene. The computer is coming in as a multimedia platform. What once was a tool, is now coming into the living room and a one-stop gaming machine, recording device, media player, etc. Whether or not the industry realizes this is something I can't say.
