Hi all !
I'll be back ... Real soon !
(read out loud with a deep disquieting alien voice)
Since I'm checking the forums a lot more these days
(from my job ), let's give some news :
I'm still working, I'm in Lyon, France
(beautiful city, 2h by train from Paris)
and I'm still a geeky fan of DM, CSB & Conflux.
My DSB project are stopped, but I'll resume activity as soon as I get a computer, and the internet.
Sidenote: I've got an awesome idea for a dungeon for DSB...
I've got a small question : I want to buy a laptop, mainly for gaming, I hate Vista and would like to have a typical WinXP (for games, if it still works) + Ubuntu (for geekery)
The typical problem is : will I be able to play Starcraft 2, Diablo 3 and Spore on a WinXP computer ?
if anyone has bought a laptop recently I'm interested in any advice !
à bientôt !
First a laptop, then...

If you want full fancy graphics goodness for modern new games (Crysis for example), you need DX10, which is Vista only.
If you're not bothered about that, then XP will be fine. Bear in mind XP only recognises up to 3GB RAM -- if you want more, you also need Vista (or Linux!)
I can't advise on laptops, I've not had one before. But I'm now in the same position as you...
