I'm kinda surprised to see any pre-orders. After I ended up with 2 N3's I swore never again, and I'm sure Im not the only one either ;) . "Jason Moyer" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

For some reason they shipped a day or two earlier to the stores this time. Feh. Jason

I pre-ordered about 3 weeks ago from EB World, for next day delivery, and received mine today. Am fixing to install it now. -- Don Burnette Mitch_A wrote: > I'm kinda surprised to see any pre-orders.

Lowes is a good 'wow factor' track: Solar glare on the front straight, bumps on the back straight. When is the next time we'll be able to feel this type of first-day enjoyment? It will probably be a LONG time. jon <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:Rge0a.5814$pR.4915@FE06... > Lowes night is absolutely stunning.... > > > >

I've been guilty of that one several times myself, and after getting harrassed by my Yankee boss about it, I looked it up in websters.

My pc seems to have difficulties with that feature... everytime I come in a corner where's there solar effect, my FPS drops from a nice 60 to 8-9... I'm running in 1280X1024, 16 bit, open GL; my specs: P4 2.26, 512 meg of RAM, GeForce 4400 128 ram; det 41.09; direct x 8.0. My game crashed hard twice, I had to reboot using the reset button. Do you have to have direct 9.0 on your machine to run it? I installed the demo as soon as it came out and had the same problem (with the solar effect, but no crashes). Anybody? -- Philippe "Philster" Sergerie "jon" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:Rge0a.5814$pR.4915@FE06... > Lowes night is absolutely stunning.... > > >

LOL There's also "fitting to...". An example: homeslice in the movie "Barber Shop" says "I'm fitting to get some fish". ;-)

I think you gotta run d3d to get good results with the solar effect. "Philster" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:A2C0a.10618$[email hidden]... > My pc seems to have difficulties with that feature... everytime I come ina
