Be a part of something great, join today!

you ordered a new video card....I still have my old Blockbuster video card but there's not a blockbuster left in the county!
 
I always make it a point to stop by on Thursday afternoons for her fresh-baked and warm chocolate chip cookies and milk. Your mom is definitely the pride of the neighborhood.
You're not listening to my mom about me, are you? I just want to say that I'm really not totally useless.
Oh, I suppose she had grandma, my priest and my shrink to back her up. All four of them totally phony.
 
This brought back memories.

RA2 was the first game I remember being able to play in the internets over dial up, lol.

At one time I was ranked 3rd in the world but the numbers 1 and 2 would never play me. Bastards!

Depends. I think many mac book pro’s dont have a discrete gpu so you may not have a video card at all.

I used to play Red Alert 2 and Command and Conquer.
Was more a warcraft 1/2/3 player though. Wow that was a long time ago lol

You have no idea what a long time ago is. I use to play artillery on my 50 KByte Tektronix 4051 computer, It accepted text Basic instructions. That was before the first PC.
I thought I was lucky because I didn't have to use the old 4050 which I think had 25 KByte.
Hot damn, the 4051 was the best in the world at that time.
In college we designed and then built our own microprocessor using the latest FET technology. God, that was hard. Probably as difficult as building our own operating system in computer science
