I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

Ha, I simply got it because I built a new comp and wanted the video background. Never use it though.

i have heard a bit about snow leopard as well, not much though. i mainly see articles about how it does something better than the current version of OSX or what not.

16tb...of memory?
As in ram?
Apple's speculating wizard-asses wrote:"To accommodate the enormous amounts of memory being added to advanced hardware, Snow Leopard extends the 64-bit technology in Mac OS X to support breakthrough amounts of RAM — up to a theoretical 16TB, or 500 times more than what is possible today. More RAM makes applications run faster, because more of their data can be kept in the very fast physical RAM instead of on the much slower hard disk."
Wow. Want future now.
