Does this mean that this marks the end of custom servers? 

I always enjoyed picking a 24/7 crossfire server on MW1 (every time I type that, or worse, MW2, I see MEchwarrior) for practice.

Release Notes: I Am Not, Nor Have I Ever Been, a Fanboy

Posted 10/21/2009 at 07:38:23am

Just a quick word from someone who went from XP to 7.

You really are missing out if you do not upgrade, benchmarks notwithstanding. Artificial benchmarks mean very little, given that driver makers and the benchmark company has had umpteen years to optimize for XP. 

Being able to manipulate windows (maximize, 1/2 screen, aero shake etc) alone makes 7 worth it, but the better memory management, greater allowable ram,  better multitasking/threading, quicker boot/shutdown, security, WMP internet streaming for free, start search and better organization make it ten times better than XP. And my reference is my Acer Aspire One (1.6ghz atom, 120gb 5400 hdd, GMA crap and 1.5gb ram) netbook.

Release Notes: I Am Not, Nor Have I Ever Been, a Fanboy

While I don't much consider myself a fanboy, as I am willing to give anything at least a fair shot, and most things a second chance, I would define another group:

 

The frontliners/early adopters. We like the newest because it is new. release-day bugs be damned, if it's shiny and new and purports to be better, I'll get it. And guess what? No matter the kinks, and minor issues, it's freaking batter man!!!!! 

 

Less a fanboy archetype, and more of a syndrome, i suppose...
