Dammit - where's the edit button? "Even with the recent shenanigans, I still trust BitCoin more than I trust PayPal (well, a bit more anyways)." (Pun intended - after the fact.)

Even with the recent shenanigans, I still trust BitCoin more than I PayPal (well, a bit more anyways).

The 'key' cause of the wide screen is the wide keyboard. If they could produce a keyboard that everyone could type on that is an inch wide....I expect that the laptop (and the screen) would be a lot smaller.

Didn't the creators of "Gamma World" predict this one? "The 2010 edition introduces a significantly different backstory that attributes the destruction of civilization to the activation of the Large Hadron Collider, which caused multiple realities to exchange features in an event known as "The Big Mistake". (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamma_World) " Close enough.

Hammer? Skull? Your name is not Maxwell, is it?

If I created something and showed it off to the public, would I want anyone telling me that I could not alter it in the future? No. (Make that HELL no.) They do not own it - I do. Especially if I copyright the material. The public can whine and complain all they want, but I am in no way/shape/form OBLIGED to follow any of their advice (nor am I forced to pay it any attention to it if it does not suit me). If George Lucas wants to take a great film* and water it down, that is his legal right. * I am referring to the three good films - not the three later cash-grabs, ehr, "prequels". I would be happy to see the last three films completely redone. [The phantom mean *, the attack of the clowns, and whatever that last one was called] Sorry, but Darth Vader was a great villain. The prequels ruined him for me - turned him into a whiny brat. Now I would rather watch Dark Helmet play with his dolls. Does this mean that people cannot view older versions of the film? Hell no - he sold them, they should be able to watch them (before the mutations). Does he have the right to tell them where to stick their boot-leg copies? Yes. Illegal copies are still illegal. Savvy? So back to the main question (before I began my minor rant) - "Who owns the art?" Until or unless the art becomes public domain, the artist owns the art.

Hmmm - I suppose so. But then technically, it is not America - it is 'the United States of America'. Oh no! I should not have said that! Now Disney will want to trademark both of those too! :P

Whatever happens, refuse the Red shirt! And the Gold shirt! In fact, you'd better just stick to a white shirt even if it does show spaghetti sauce. :o

Many good suggestions here: X-Com, Mechwarrior, System Shock (1 or 2). Not seen: Space Empires (4 or 5). However, if I had to pick one that was greatly touted (and then disappointed) - I would give a reboot to MOO3 (Master of Orion 3). (begin whine) C'mon - where were the 3-D battles we were promised? Not just 2 1/2 D perspective on 2 D battles (panning camera above the battlefield). I want the real thing! Wah! (end whine) Okay, for that matter, SE5 also failed to deliver there, but MOO3 had more flaws - which I will not enumerate unless there is some genuine interest.
