	There is now a "Halo 2 for Vista" version out. Of course you cant play it on XP because MS is trying to boost Vista integration...

	There is a program available that allows you to run Halo 2 on Windows XP, although I think the multiplayer functionality is still buggy. Again, why the heck would you want to buy Halo? -b0b (...remembers the incredibly crappy level design in the original Halo.)

	Well, I guess that means I can at least run the game! For the love of all that is holy, I need an upgrade! -b0b (...figures he'll be able to do a full rebuild around March or April of next year.)

	@#%@#%!!! 50GB?! For what it's worth, Baldur's Gate II required 5GB, and that came out when years ago. 8GB isn't all that bad by comparison. -b0b (...wowza!)

	50?! Did you miss type that Briney? For a normal person's computer that's maybe half a persons hard drive. If you need 80ish in all that entire thing would need my external hard drive I use to dl stuff on! X

	Quote: * OS: Windows XP SP2 / Vista * CPU: Dual Core Processor * RAM: 2 GB RAM * Video: Nvidia 7800 or higher / ATI x1300 or higher * Disk space: 15 GB Those are the minimum requirements! I'll admit, the game is pretty, but that's a lot of RAM's and literally tons of the Gigs! -b0b (...worse than BioShock and Crysis!)

	Yeah, I'll switch to Vista when Rosie O'Donnell stops being a whore... ...or next spring, when I'll have to start studying for the 2008 MCSE track. Whichever comes first. -b0b (...groans.)

	I was reading this article: Quote: http://blogs.cnet.com/8301-13506_1-9785337-17.html Did any of you know that Vista has DRM protection? Wow...really?! Is Microsoft trying to become the internet police? That's scary. I would rather have Bush and Chaney guard my newly won lotto money. I would rather have Michael Jackson babysit my kids. I would rather have Rosie O'Donnell watch my hot fudge sundae while I go to the bathroom! X
