Apparently they just swept through their product line on a 4.2-RELEASE system and everything checked out ok (apart from the games requiring 3D support of course). The Sim City 3000 demo crashed for me on my 4.3-RC system (compiled this morning) but seems to run fine for them on 4.2-RELEASE. They are looking into it. The other demos I tried ran fine and were quite impressive. They even gave me install pointers for the games I mentioned I was going to buy. Very friendly and helpful. I'll be ordering from them this weekend. --=20 Note: See http://www.members.home.net/graywane/ for PGP information. --/9DWx/yDrRhgMJTb Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.4 (FreeBSD) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iEYEARECAAYFAjrWYgUACgkQeHdFaBWUGN0zTACfXJQbuHjAQsRHsLVV0olVpR6K 624An1w7UEQ5zdKJeQEr0N+OYMjDEG4o =/Bny -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --/9DWx/yDrRhgMJTb-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
