Well? How many beans can you spill on the subject? Is it a decent OS? Or will we all be sticking to XP pro for awhile (For those of us on XP pro anyway)?

Well, you can always try it out for yourself. It isn't hard to find...
Last version I tried was Beta 1, not sure what the latest version floating about is. I rather like it myself; although there wasn't anything drastically different from XP Pro. I had to give it up though, because it didn't like either of my network cards for some reason. That's probably fixed by now though.

I tried one out, and thought of buying one, but realized that for the same price, I could get a bunch of snowboarding in instead.
Gaming isn't a big concern of mine anymore, speed for other stuff is more important to me, as I can just play games a couple years after release, and save money both on hardware and software.
Gaming rig specs:
2.3 GHz Athlon 64
2 GB ram
Geforce 6600 GT

I had to choose Something Else because there's no 7800 GT option.

How on earth do you play with 20 bots?!?!?!? |
As so.
I merely reduced resolution from 1280x1024 to 800x600.

| You're all so damned fortunate to be able to do it on any setting at all; I can't. |

I'm sad to say, you haven't missed much.
Jedi Academy is more satisfying.
I wish Republic Commando wasn't so short, though.

What was the name of that artist who banned me because I said H3LL (and I won't even get to it) even the game got a Teen rating and made all the robots look like badly textured humanoid mutants instead of giant OMF robots with intriguing shapes?

Hmmm...Not much going on here. I thought I'd place my updated specs, though
AMD Sempron 2800, 1 GB DDR Ram (400 mhz), GForce 6200. Of course, now I lost the "glow". Had to disable it to see the game. But I see shadows now and the game works more smoothly with a greater number of players than before.... |

| I play on an ATi All-In-Wonder 9600 128MB, and I can run the game on fairly high settings in low resolutions with 18 bots or less. |

The number of bots depends on RAM methinks. I can do 20 with 1GB and on a Radeon9800XT 256MB overclocked just slightly on absolutely all full settings and 1024x768 rez. Never tried more then 20 because it gets screen laggy and I can't play for the first 10 seconds cause all the animations are loading for the first time.

It depends on RAM, CPU and GFX.

Well yeah, I meant moreso then the other factors. I mean, there's a certain point where you simply do not have sufficient memory to process all the variables simultaneously.
