Why did the parent get voted down? This seems like a reasonable question to me. I sometimes have trouble getting smooth playback of H264 on my Linux systems due to the GPU driver not being as advanced as the Windows version. It sounds like H265 will require even more powerful graphics processing. Will I need a newer, more powerful video card? Will I be able to play this format on Linux at all, or will I have to wait a couple of years till the driver support for hardware acceleration catches up?

We've already got an 802.11A standard, so how are they going to specify a router that uses all the standards? 802.11BAGNAC (ordered by speed)? 802.11AACBGN (alphabetical)? There were plenty of 1-character suffixes left, so why use a 2-character suffix that can be confused with an existing suffix?

Sim City Classic (Micropolis) works fine on my Linux system and Sim City 2000 works on my XP system.

Have they really added any got to have features to their many updates of the game, or are they just trying to capitalize on a well-known title to rake in more cash?
