Hopefully I'll be able to return and get back into the mines soon, I've been uberbusy at work, practicing management skills so maybe I can get promoted again to GM. Anyway; I'm looking forward to having games with you guys, I miss the dogfights/vulcanpicking.

If only you had a desktop computer...

Speaking of systems! Perhaps this will help someone else.

I did some experimenting for the LAN to determine the cheapest computer that could run D1 to competitive standards. What I came up with was . . .

This PC: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications ... No=9620852
with this video card: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications ... No=9515566

Total cost, $200. Plays Descent well enough that Jediluke can win a tournament on it.

. . . Why do I always derail threads . . .

WELCOME BACK BAHAMUT GREAT GAME!!

ok...true enough....but keep in mind with that setup i had to run at a little lower resolution than what I'm used to in order to maintain 200fps Just sayin'
