how is knights of the old republic? Is it better than the x-box version. After the so-so reviews of halo I'm making sure that game gets good reviews before I buy it. They didn't do such a great job porting Halo I heard.

Good fun! Very nice RPG which a great story (nice plot twist as well ). The only problem is that it can have serious memory loss in some areas.

I haven't played the X-Box version, so I can't say how it compares. It's a good game, though. You should like it if you like other bioware games. It's what I was expecting the singleplayer NWN to be like (minus the light sabers ).

I've changed it a bit just for you.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\desktop\Windowmetrics
Shell Icon Size = 128
Icon Spacing = -1800
Icon Vertical Spacing = -2100

I had it previously set to 72 (and to 96 before that).

I have one too. It's very useful sometimes. . . especially to those of use that grew up learning to use computers, without windows, and only DOS.

Of course, it's one of the most necessary shortcuts in this pc. There's nothing to laugh about with that.

And here's what happens when I move the mouse to a corner.

All the windows zoom out.

I wish I had an animated file of this, it looks really cool (but not as cool as Sun's forthcoming "looking glass" desktop environment).
