who said anything about a new computer?

were just talking ram and maybe a video card....

Me thinks that a lot of the guys who are griping about "a new computer" are individuals who need some instruction on computers to begin with....
Things like RAM, Video Card, Processor have no meaning to these people..  All that stuff in that big heavy cereal box looking thing with the wires hanging out was $2000.00
from Dell 8 years ago and they're still probably paying on it..  It's probably never once been reformatted and is practically a semi-solid mass of dust inside..  Any fan in the thing
probably quit working years ago, but keeps their feet nice and toasty warm in the winter..  They're possibly still running Windows ME...lmao

I can only imagine...

In all seriousness, they really need some help in how to upgrade or build inexpensively....

My 3.75 year old computer runs the beta just fine at max detail.

My auxiliary system is almost 5 years old and does fine!  Not sure what all the fuss is all about..  I bet 95% of systems playing the current version could play the beta as well....

If only 95% will run the release, then things would not be going as we plan.

Case and point! This will not hurt that many people! The only people it Will hurt are the people still gaming on they're Great Grandfathers Type writer.   :lol
P.S. When did this post become about Cars we were just using it as an example. And computers are still bound by the laws of physics there just bound by them in the same way!
There should be no more debate for this ....... It's a good change!   :aok

The same whines were spoken when AH2 was in Beta.   It is BETA, things will be fleshed out before BETA is RELEASED as the new product from HTC.

I was figuring 95% was the low side...
Obviously you guys are committed to 100%....
Works for me! :rock
