And for those between the ages of 4/5 and 16 the compulsory school years. (ie Year R to Year 11) I never thought as school as much of a choice.

Yeah, those people too. I stopped being one of those a few ago.

I didn't go to school my 7th grade year. I went for about and week and then just stopped, I realized that I wasn't interested in anything they were teaching me so I left. Then I found out after a year that going to school wasn't a choice. So sayeth the United States government. Lol

But anyways this summer I may to Arizona and Las Vegas, plus I'll be going to lake eufaula Gonna be great

I still have a week left until I graduate high school, but we don't have to do any work so it'll be fine.

OHH, and if anyone has heard of APB (I'm sure most of you have) the MMO that is like GTA. Well, it bombed in the first, what was it, two months? But now the new version APB: reloaded is in open beta, it is free to play and I started to play it. I think it would be really fun to play with y'all, so if anyone wants to go to gamerfirst.com and download the game to play with me that would be awesome. We could create "True Sith" as a clan. I realize that the grammar in this statement is terrible, but I just wanted to write it fast. If you want to join tell me in this topic and give me your character name.

I'm an Enforcer (cop faction) on the Colby North America server (I'm pretty sure it's called Colby), my name is Manhattan.

Why why why are you a cop? Are we not Sith? The bad guys... I enjoy being evil 24/7 sir. Lol

Ya, but it's fun to be cops sometimes :]

True enough. Even the Sith have their law-enforcers, and these enforcers must follow a law - albeit an 'evil' one of the government of the Sith Empire. Syndicates like the Exchange and the Hutt's are the criminals and the Empire polices against them just as much as the Republic.

Lawful Evil then?

I might check that APB game out if I can find the time to download it, heh.

Yeah me too.

I'm well chuffed to learn after my second playthrough (recognised a few and researched others) that almost every charactor in Dragon Age 2 was voiced by a fellow Brit! lol

Is anyone here playing The Witcher 2? I'm trying because I loved the first one but it's all laggy. I hate my computer...
Well is there a special hack or something so I can turn down the graphics quality lower than it gives me the option to do. Geerrr I'm mad.

What are your computer specs?

Intel Core 2 Duo 2.17 GHz

1022MB Ram

NVIDIA GeForce Go 7959 GTX

Windows Vista Ultimate

Oh yeah and the ground textures for the game aren't loading. I think I just have a crap laptop and need to upgrade.

Well, you should probably have at least (at least) 2 GB of ram if you're going to be playing high graphical games. With 1000 MB equaling 1 GB of ram, you have... 1 GB. I personally have 4 GB of ram, which is pretty good amount, 8 GB is very good and 12 is kind of over the top (but not bad). Your processor's GHz is (I think) on the lower end, mine is 3.3 GHz. This tells you the speed at which the processor can do things. Your operating system (windows 7 Ultimate) is great, you can keep that the same. And as for your graphics card, tell me what year it is from, because I don't know much about that one.

I think it's around 2005 or 2006 because that's whenever I got this computer. I'm thinking of just buying an Alienware.
Overkill? : http://www.dell.com/us/p/alienware-M17x-r3/pd.aspx

Unfortunately because of my art by best computer is a Mac Book - which is totally useless for swtor. But I prefur my PC, much better than Macs lol. I've got 4GB ram along with a 3.5 ghz quad core processor. Its good for the games that I play on it, top graphic games I play on my Xbox.

just build your own desktop buy the case fans graphics cards processors etc, (thats what all my friends seem to be doing) you can save loads sometimes up to a £/$1000 and build something which can usually end up better than ones in store, if you want to go overkill on an alienware and can afford it do it if you want i just wouldnt recomend it

If you do not know a lot about computers I would not recommend custom building one, unless you researched every component. If you do have enough money for that lap top then by all means buy it. It is kind of overkill, but it'll last you a while technologically.

EDIT: So it looks as though I won't be able to get an AlienWare for.. reasons so who here knows a lot about computers? I've already found 4GB ram upgrade and need some help in this. PM me please, I'm helpless obviously.

Are you looking to upgrade or buy a whole new system first?
