Man, this is so fast now! It's great to have the site on a local server! *grins* Of course, it might be slow as snot for the rest of you folks, but I can't really do much about that.. *eyes cable modem*
I tried installing Outcast this afternoon and failed miserably. After a bit of research, I found out that the problem was that the game didn't like my sound card. Apparently the game will work if you reinstall an earlier version of the drivers. Too bad they were talking about Win 9x. There are no earlier versions for the drivers for Win 2000. I'm using the ones that came with the OS! To top it off, since Aureal went belly up last year, nobody out there will be fixing this sound card problem..
Actually, this sound card problem is not limited to Outcast, I've mentioned before that my sound card cuts out every now and then. I did a bit more research into that problem and found out that there was no solution. Basically, you have to get a new sound card. Goody. I guess I won't be playing Outcast until I get my new system. At least I got to see the introduction movie. It's really long, but it's also quite interesting. I'd like to see how the rest of the game goes..

Oh hey, I went to hip-hop this afternoon. The routine this week seemed a heck of a lot harder than the previous classes. Perhaps it's just me, but I think it has more to do with the not-so-natural steps during one of the intermediate movements. I keep going the wrong way, which then screws me up for a few counts, and usually, if we're going fast, that means that I'm completely out of it.
Professional dancer I am not. It was fun though. Now all I have to do is to remember the steps..
I should get going. I need sleep after staying up all night. *yawns*
Before I go, I did my nightly rounds at the ShackNews and came up with two links. The first is about some company that's planning to throw up it's own TLDs, while there's a rumour that Paramount's launching (yet) another Star Trek series.

A new Star Trek series was never in doubt. The only things up for rumour are details like what form it would take and whether they were going to "rest" the franchise for a season or something.
Gee, we've never seen a Vulcan science officer on the Enterprise before...
