@sugarlilly02:

I'm pretty sure it doesn't matter. You can get any collector's edition for the OTHER things included in the box, if it doesn't come with Mac DVDs so what? It'll still contain your key and all the other things that you're presumably buying the collectors edition for. The client can simply be downloaded.

@Josin:

"We get that. Even if it's only 3 gigs,(it'll be more) and only 100,000 people try for the digital download (it'll be more), that's a large chunk of people trying to get the same data through the same pipeline at the same time."

You forget that for the majority of people, Blizzard uses a BitTorrent client for distribution. There are cases where people turn off the P2P client, but unless somebody manually does it, there is no "pipeline" that you speak of, and once there are a few hundred (it'll be more) seeders, most people on decent connections will download the client extremely quickly.

Well, personally, I can still access XBox Live with my modded XBox... I just turn the modchip off when I want to jump online.

I don't think that the gov't would've cared as much if they had been selling a modded Xbox with XBMC installed... what they cared about was all of the games they stuffed on the hard drive.

You may not realize this, but the "icons" of Idol, the judges, especially Simon, refused to pump out season after season. The first three seasons happened in right around (maybe a bit under) 2 years. Since then, they have committed to doing no more than one season a year, which I think, as an Idol fan, is tolerable. The beginning of the seasons are pretty much all the same, yet enjoyable... I just only want to see them once a year.

What two former skins did they buy out? I used to use Coral exclusively, and according to the article, Coral and Empire are the two that DIDNT get bought out. They were also (I think?) the two largest skins.

I'm new to living in Southern Georgia and know that there is no poker IN Georgia-- I've been meaning to look for a card room in North Florida for some... anybody have any recommendations or know of any places that have decent card rooms? Obviously, it seems like $1/2 limits are going to be the best I can find though, but I'll take what I can get.
