I haven't played it yet (cantwaitcantwaitcantwaitNEXTWEEKcantwait), but the reviews I've seen have been overwhelmingly positive -- what have you heard otherwise?

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
IGN gave it, like, a 7.2, said it was trite and boring.
But I don't know anything about IGN, they could be talking out of their ass. The user comments were much more positive.
FWIW, my HP Pavilion came with Vista Home Premium and actually runs just fine, but then it came with 3 Gigs of memory to start with, so I may be in more of a situation that the OS was actually designed for. It may also help that I didn't convert it from an XP machine or whatnot.
Is anyone familiar with or can explain what is meant by a distribution of software in "binary form"? Is it distinguished from compiled/executable?
Binary means it's both compiled and executable. (Although not all executables are binary. eta: I suppose in the Windows world, 'executables' refers to compiled binary programs. But in the *nix, OS X world, executable can mean uncompiled scripts.)
Thank you! That is really helpful.
OK, here's another question. This is for a work project. I won't die if no one responds, but maybe someone will enjoy the chase. Anyway, I am looking for copyrights for the following: CL/xpparse.2c and CL/xpyacc.tab.c, both distributed by the Free Software Foundation, and java-getopt-1.0.12.jar., glibC, and libstdc++, distributed by GNU. I've been searching for literally weeks, but it's hard to do via the WWW.
Hmm. Maybe your best bet would be to download all those programs in source code versions. Those would contain files of the license agreement.
I don't know if this would be of any help: [link]

Yeah, I'm also trying something along those lines, and have at least had success with libstdc++ that way.
