    Yeah, I know what you mean. Sounds like you spent too much? If you got 16 Gigs of RAM then definitely use it! Sooner or later I'll update to 64-bit OS, but for now games run GREAT on 32-bit with 4 Gigs of RAM. I've read about audio gliches, but I've rarely had them with my setup. As for...

    I've seen the commercial many times on Qubo. I wanted to check it out, but paying is out-of-the-question. There are too many free sites (with bugs mentioned above) where my children can learn. PBS is one of the best. My kids LOVE PBS. Did you notice Adobe no longer updates Flash for Linux...

    PlayOnLinux Graphical Interface: The graphical interface is designed similar to a Windows program. You won't be using most of these features to install and play games, but I will roughly explain what they are for. File: Run - Launches a selected game or program Install - Launches the Install...

    Microsoft seems to continue doing what they do best: coming too late to the party after copying someone else and then failing. They can't learn a lesson from themselves. I admit, the only reason I stick with Windows is because of games. This is starting to change with PlayOnLinux.

    Yeah, I'm not sure why the edit button isn't working. Our forum is fairly new and we've never used Xenforo before. So there are a few bugs we are still working out. I've notified Gizmo about it and he said there are some permission issues that need to be sorted. The main reason I go to...
