GPL:real problem :-)

Well,now that I finally got GPL it seems that I got myself a really difficult problem.... Every time I'm on this group reading about some new interesting idea on equpipment , on GPL or on some other sim I feel bad because I know that in that moment I could just as well be out on the track in Monaco or on the Ring to experience the knot in the stomach that comes from too high speed, the roar of the engines ,the response of the car, and gaining more driving experience.... but every time I'm out on the track I have my head full of interesting stuff regarding GPL that I want to check on if somebody has written about here, or has had any experience with......;-)..... and I haven't even started online racing yet..... -- Robert S?derberg If replying by mail,remove the word INGENSPAM from the adress.

Welcome to the world of sleepless nights and obsessing about breaking the 1:30 mark at Monza <g> I havnet gone a day without GPL in umm...a long time. Hell i managed to slip in some hotlaps on Thanksgiving with 17 other people in the house!! and of course if you do something spectacular its obligitory to announce it here on R.A.S. <g> Chris

I have the solution to your problem !!!! Buy a 2nd computer which will be online all the time, connected to this NG and you cant play with the 1st one at the same time...

Or you could get a second PCI video card and plug in a second monitor if you have Win98. Not sure if this works with GPL, but Win98 does support multiple monitors. Probably not safe to drive and read the news at the same time though ;)

It gets very confused about where the mouse pointer is. -- [asbjxrn] [lLd25z*%ds1-100/sLlSdI%ds2-O/sSl1l2*PlL0<l]sl 21172310731916131628237117 3237142523312SSSLllxq

You are not alone. Been there, seen it, and still doing it.... Steve
