they posted $100 million USD revenue in 2010, so they do make a good amount of money. however, i do feel $1 billion is steep.

there games are also on windows, mac osx, ios, and xbla. So they don't really have any connection exclusively with sony. As much as i would love that, i don't see it happening. Also they say the price may be north of 1 billion USD. The article hints at EA or a Japanese company.

thought this was an interesting article.

two and a half men, kind of plays like leisure suit larry

I predict a long thread full of lots of intellectual discussion ahead

:roll:

dercoo

nooo not here

i read that in the same article that microsoft said that their offices are using mac computers...

From this info, you can create recovery disks but it might not work on a different pc: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01895783&lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&product=1842155#WhenCreatemasterdrat

it could work possibly, the only thing is a serial key which not so intelligent me cannot seem to find. this has become such a head ache i may just buy a new HDD and a copy of windows for the build

since i have your attention how do you feel about this build?

video card:radeon hd 6850 1024MB GDDR5

mobo: GA-p67X-UD3-B3 LGA 1155 P67 ATX Intel

ram: XMS3 8GB DDR3 1600

cpu: i5 2500k

the specs are listed ont he side

Then it was preinstalled, the installation files are on a different partition on your drive or something.masterdrat

what do you mean?

To reuse your drives, you have to check if your old drives are IDE or SATA, all new computers uses SATA. Most new mobo don't have IDE ports. In all cases, you don't need to erease your data but you will need to reinstall your o/s on top of the old one, so make sure you still have the discs.masterdrat

the HDD and mobo are going to work together that was the first thing i checked into. the issue is that i dont have a cd it was download off microsoft website.
