Quoted from teekee:You know how some kids at Christmas time end up playing with the box more than the toy inside? Just say'n... that is a nice box!
Enough already. That joke is long past its prime and looks redundant at this point. We get it.

Quoted from Whysnow:I do not know about you, but I have been getting excited about a box for most of my life. Interest really increased rapidly around 7th grade if I remember correctly.
LOL Hilton, only us dirty minded folks are going to get this one.
Quoted from AkumaZeto:When something is hyped so much for so long it can never NEVER live up to said hype. WOZ PINBALL= EPISODE 1.
I cant wait till the linux kernel becomes corrupt and tons of people start going wtf. I run ubuntu on my main rig and it happens about once a year. There is still the lengthily thread on 3dm as well.
No Linux kernel ever becomes corrupt. It's read only. It's only when people fuck with it, try to recompile or add modules that taint it. I can guarantee it won't "corrupt". And if there is a boot problem ill know in 2 seconds if someone messed with the OS as every single file is check summed.
There is also a complete reinstallation mechanism which takes but a few mins and installs OS and code. This would be used only in very rare cases.
P.S. if your Ubuntu box is screwing up yearly turn off auto updates. They suck and the dependency mapping in apt is horrendous. A machine will NOT corrupt if nothing is modified. It's not win blows.
Quoted from AkumaZeto:good to know.
What gpu is being used?
No GPU is required. Everything is pre-rendered. Fonts and certain graphics are overlays on top of renderings requiring no JIT generation.
Quoted from AkumaZeto:So no real time rendering then. What MB and Proc are being used? ssd? flash?
SSD is the HD. Mobo had onboard graphics and HD sound.
I won't say what proc or the specifics on the mobo. You guys will have to wait for the game . But trust me its overkill. Which is the way I like it.
Quoted from AkumaZeto:Hoping its something with a decent bios or is it going to be locked down
Bios is standard/UEFI . It will be PW locked.
Quoted from AkumaZeto:INTEL BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO LLANO FTW
The a8 has counting errors (much like most amd's). In dealing with RT kernels, there isn't a single amd proc that fits the bill. Granted the integrate GPU is a nice touch its best served for desktops at best. Could you imagine being in the middle of your best game ever and suddenly a kernel panic? You would flip your shit, and so would i. There is a reason there is an amd specific kernel fork.
AMD - JUST SAY NO!
Quoted from Whysnow:why did you smart guys have to come ruin the threads with some actual concrete discussion and facts
Sorry Hilton. I'll take my geek hat off.
I do suspect my inbox to blow up as people get their games who have hardware/Linux questions so I might as well make a FAQ to post on the site.
Quoted from MrDo:Seriously... Why not just wait and keep the promise of a completed game? We've waited THIS long... ... ... That implies that they are VERY far away. If not, they'd just delay it a few weeks just to call it complete. No?
No. Incorrect. Updates will be frequent as every PROPERLY developed piece of software. Anyone familiar with agile development practices know iterative rapid changes. Not 3,6,9 months (or in same cases years) between updates.
The update mechanism takes seconds and is automatic (or manual if you so choose).
What good reasons are those? And what was funny about the inaccurate statement?
13 years? That's like saying I haven't used windows since WinME with good reasons.
Quoted from Sunfox:...Although, granted WinME was a total pile of crap (the only Microsoft operating I've installed and then uninstalled within 24 hours).
Right now ms peaked with windows 7. Xp was very good. Windows 7 sp1 is great. Vista was a clusterfuck and windows 8 is the reach around to vista, its that bad.
HP sent me 50 brand new windows 8 laptops for me to demo Across the enterprise, deployed them Monday after putting a standard build on them, by Tuesday night my inbox was filled with four letter expletives I can't repeat in good company. By Thursday they were in a truck back.
FreeBSD author jordon Hubbard is the director of unix engineering at apple . That's why osx is so Rock solid because the Darwin kernel from FreeBSD underpins osx.
I run windows 7 on a 27" iMac and its stable as hell. I may be a Linux engineer by trade but I'm not an OS bigot. Windows has its place especially in the enterprise desktop world but only properly engineered. Deploy it haphazardly and you are in for a whirlwind of shit.
Quoted from chessiv:You're being nice about windows 8. It's a disaster in usability. It's a crappy tablet OS that they expect you to run on non-touchscreen pcs. What a mess. It's the Vacation America of oses.
Horrendous doesnt even describe it. At least vista had a known usability about it despite the f^(ked up driver stack (which was its downfall).

Quoted from PersonX99:How does that happen (not a devote user)? I was under the impression Ubuntu was very stable. I have it running on a laptop that was too slow to run a newer version of Windows, but flies with Ununtu.
I thinking if a programmer is testing on the actual machine, it is probably getting close to release. I could be wrong, as I do not know the details of the process.
Can't wait to play the completed game. Don't care for WoZ theme, but the technology used in this is (hopefully) going to change pinball forever! I'll be bummed out if WoZ goes the way of P2K.
It won't happen. Akuma was mistaken.
Quoted from Pimp77:Hey...shouldn't you be programming?
You're right.. back to work
Quoted from Expletive:It's funny to watch the WOZ owners already turn into apologists for JJP shipping a pin with unfinished code. Somehow this is "different" than when Stern does it, because WOZ is "better" and gives you "more value".
Classic.
It's funny to watch new people sign up for accounts with zero credibility spewing negative commentary.
Quoted from CraZ4Pin:He has no collection listed because he just made up that ID 30 minutes ago simply for the sake of throwing out a baseless (and childish) insult that he was too much of a wuss to post under his regular name.
Classic.
Robin should include the IP address of every post made. Ill write a script to correlate uniqueness. Watch how many folks are behind these new accounts.
