Huh, and this even though Tom Pabst is still associated with BRD ?

Not really sure what the aliens have done with my wife, but I got a
NEC LT-150 DLP projector.  She insists it is for "home theater" but. .
. nothin' like N4 on an 85" screen.

Yeah, I was wondering about that, too.  There was another thread singing BRD's
praises, even though Tom turned people against the company...

Well, on the personal level, I happen to think my local Nissan
dealer/mechanic is a class one *** too, but he keeps my car in excellent
mechanical condition nevertheless and his rates are reasonable/same as
everywhere else.

I.e. Pabst's opinions on simracers and RAS regulars may not reflect on the
quality of the pedals for some and, as I understand it, those outside of the
US don't have to go through him to buy them in the first place. Note Doug's
E-mail ends in ".co.uk".

I can see you need to have it spelled out to you: It is okay to write
"God bless America" but not "God bless the rest of the World"? Who's the
egocentric here?

Have a happy new year in your trailer.

Are you quoting Doug there uncle? -If he went on record as saying he would
hold Tom's actions against BRD, his statement about the pedals is indeed
surprising.

Be sure to download the developer patch to support the Act-labs shifter
if you have it.

The good thing about Viper is you can run it at 1024x768 4xFSAA with
48+fps.  I think it maxes out around 50fps.
