My video card has been acting up for quite some time, but I didn't get around to testing it until recently (I was sick). It's definitely a hardware issue and I have to RMA it. No cross-shipping, either. Drat!

I wish I could borrow a decent card for a couple of weeks. All these cool games are coming out right now! I don't know whether to try the Orange Box now (the card does better on Half-Life than some other engines, although it's getting pretty flaky all around) or to wait. If I get a taste, I may go stir-crazy until the card comes back. It had better work when it does get back! Grrr.

I wish they'd just ship me a new one. Sad

Well, it got there on the 18th and I keep bothering the company.

Yeah, that will make it happen faster. Smile

P.S. GCC 3.0 looks great.
