I guess I'll be the first brave old guy.

Soccer,
I'll take a look at this tonight. Did you see my China beat down by the Brit major? I'm struggling with China. Nav is working with me, but I'd appreciate your feedback too b/c you always offer honest opinion (i.e. don't pull punches. lol)

Ok - game one (v. skyline2) I'm not sure, but I think you won this one ?? You were much more solid than the other guy, but there were a number of things I think you could work on. Some of these didn't matter b/c of your opponent. I'm not a Japan expert at all, but I'll do a little research there b/c...

OK - here's me getting stomped by a major. This is a fair assessment of where I'm at right now with China.

I see quite a few things, but I don't want to pollute the comments.

I don't feel dangerous with China yet.

Hey BashUgood - I'll take a look at these in the next day or so. Welcome aboard - I hope I can help you out a bit.

Whoa, my comp doesn't like the file. It's coming up as a garbled HTML file. Am I doing something wrong?

I once ran 100 feet in 9 seconds flat. Is that fast? I'm not familiar with those fancy metres or whatever high-falutin' Euro stuff that is.

This is a great question. I always assumed the latter, but...

That UI is awesome. I feel like such a noob never knowing about stuff like that.

And I was going to correct drew that there are 13 civs. Glad I didn't. Doh!

:-P

There could be several issues here. You mentioned errors - is your computer finding bad sectors? I've lost a couple of laptop hard drives and many of your problems sound like the hard drive death spiral. A format in that case will only delay the inevitable.

If you are old school, Vista has problems with IPX/SPX. However, this won't matter to you.

Laptop >>> Xbox 360, but
Desktop >>> laptop, unless you just need the mobility. I just mention this b/c you are thinking Xbox 360 as an alternative, which is not mobile.
