Oh man, I remember the first time two years ago my school instructor took me out in the Taurus. Not good. I nearly hit the curb at my first turn because I didn't turn enough. Otherwise, it just takes practice. Learning how to drive is the easy part, it's the decisions that you must make on...
I got two of those in my sophomore and junior years. I didn't go, didn't feel like dishing out 2 grand for a 1 week trip. My friends who have went said it was fun, so I hope you have a good time ;)

Years of instant messanging :P
I got mine on my 18th birthday, which is extremely late in the area I live in. I see 6th graders walking home with cell phones when I drive past them. It makes me puke.

I can't wait.
PlanetAgeofMythology.com has a couple of small new screens of AoE3. So far it looks damn good, almost too damn good. And yes, that teaser shot does seem to be in-game. Head on over?
I would say there's quite an improvement when looking at the 6800GT over the 6800 vanilla. You could probably find some benchmark sites like [H]ardOCP that can show you what I mean. However the 6800 vanilla is still a great card.
I believe the FX5700 runs Half-Life 2 in DirectX 8.1 mode, thus leaving out water reflections (although that can be patched) and some minor visual improvements that DirectX 9 can offer. Don't be discouraged though -- Half-Life 2 will still look and run great on that card :)
By the time Unreal III comes out, or any game in 2005 comes out, I'll have more important things on my hand. And the whole 9600XT/9800Pro/6600GT deal is because of money contraints. I'm about to go to college and I don't have the time or the money to play games anymore.
Besides, I don't see...
I've got a Pentium 4 2.66 GHz with 512MB PC-2700 RAM and a BFG 6800GT OC. The sad thing was it would run at the same FPS on almost all the resolutions (excluding 1600x1200, as that gave a little performance hit). However I would run everything on High with 4xAA/8xAF and get about 50FPS...
