So Thanksgiving is a good weekend to potentially hold a LAN. From the sound of it there is a fair amount of interest as well, the only problem remains space. I'm pretty sure the farm is out, meaning it would have to be up to someone else to sponsor. Unless we could talk the legion into it.... lol
I dunno let me know what you guys think.

we could possibly do something in my barn. I don't think the rents would have a problem with it.

Yeah Vista works great 99% of the time or not at all. I wish Nero worked, I tried to convince my computer to burn a movie for almost 2 hours last weekend before I just went out and rented one. But small issues like that aren't going to keep me from using it (I think may be about time to reformat though)

Yeah, Nero 6 which I had does not. I dunno if I have anything newer because Derf has my HD at the moment. I think we need to start thinking about a Christmas LAN now if we're gonna pull it off. Would before or after be better? I'm off from 12/19 to 1/3.

Try using the Norton program, I think that one had some nice automated data recovery options.

on a completely unrelated note.....I picked up a new monitor and at the same time ordered a hardware calibration system.... So at the next LAN if anyone wants their monitor properly calibrated it can be done.... It is one of the best ones I could find without going into the 200-300 price range with monaco optix's and stuff.... www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16832347010

I have this really neat data recovery program I snatched from work...I can recover data from a HD (as long as the mobo can see it) even if it has been reformated or loses it's File system. Let me know if you want me to take a look at it. Also, a Christmas LAN sounds fun. I know we're trying to get another one around, not sure if it's going to be in Kzoo or Pigeon though. I'll shed more light on that as I find out. If we clean up here at my Cousin's house in Kzoo, we could easily fit 15-20 peeps...and if we used the basement (need to empty the back basement room out and put some carpet down) we'd have enough room for about 30 peeps. Let me know if that sounds good. If so we'll start the clean up process . The last LAN we had 12 peeps and it was great. We're just hoping to get more peeps that can play COD4 on their machine cause that's a badass multiplayer

I edited the nukes on crysis so they had an extremely high pressure field that went on for quite aways....at the center of the blast trees were knocked over and at the outer ring of the blast the tops of the trees had been broken off...the physics calculations involved in clear cutting all the trees on a small island with a nuke brought my computer to its knees for a few seconds LOL.
