Ubuntu 64 here. I like the smaller and specific install it does over the others. i have used SuSE in the past, but with a 64 bit core, Ubuntu really shines in some areas.

I was looking for a 3d sprite engine myself. I just quit EQ, and wanted to create something similar to PS, but I came across a site for Crystal Space and saw the screenshots for this game here. Soo, here I am. =)

If it is the cooler fan that is on the video card, then that may take a little bit more money then normal. If it is a chassi fan or the CPU fan, then that costs about 5 to 10 US dollars. Not sure what you would pay for it tho. In fact, they may be carried by any local computer hardware store. I am a PC Tech and a low level network administrator, so if you have any questions on it, explain it the best you can and I\'ll keep a watch here for you to help out.

First it depends on the variant of DSL you have: HDSL, SDSL, ADSL, VDSL.
HDSL can get up to 2MBit up and down, you need 3 copper cable pairs for that.
SDSL is always equally fast in both directions (hence symmetric DSL), needs only one pair of cables. But at least in good ol\' Yurop you have to win the lottery to be able to afford it. Twice. Also 2MBit max.
ADSL ist the most common variant, downstream max 8MBit, upstream max. 1MBit. One pair of cables.
VDSL goes up to a whopping 52 MBit/s for downstream, upstream 2.3 MBit. Problem: the length between the computer and the main switch cannot exceet 300 metres (that\'s 328 yards for those who favour the strange length units)
Perhaps the ethernet adapter has 100 MBit/s
Otherwise I know who will host a PS server in the future.
Very correct there... In fact We work on split DSL lines, thus we share here.... It\'s about 2 times the speed of a 56K, thus topped out at 128 Kbps and it costs 3 times what I pay now for dialup - $9.95. Cable is also available, but very unreliable due to our strong winds. It goes down no less then 2 times a month and for hours on end. Satalite costs anywhere from 80 to 120 a month and it uses a dial up connection for uploading. Not worth it at all. The biggest thing I look for whenever I get any game is the 56k availability of it. I left EverQuest due to it\'s need for many 12+ hour updates and always needing to buy new cd\'s. THose costing on average of 20 each....... and the patches that came with the new cd\'s. I will not pay any monthly fee for waisting my time and my phone bill. Enough said. =)
Anyway, i am DLing the parts now to try it out. I think I will be impressed and may show it to my friends. Hopefully they\'ll want to join in.
