Ill have to relook, how does GPL run on new computers (vista and or Win7
5770 ati cards?) I havent been on GPL in a while...
Heck, I'm going to have to find my GPL Iso and disc cover, and see haw bad
it is in Vista, lol... I still have 2 cdroms full of old downloads from GPL
stuff, which I am sure are outdated, and what, 4 or 5 250 meg "Iomega
Zipdrives" full of stuff in the
basement somewhere for Nascar Racing 02 & 03? Plus I saw all 3 disk covers
(keys) somewhere while hiding presents ya know.
Anyone recall SODA OFF ROAD, I see I still have that CD in that box, the
other day... no way to fake the old "rendition2 cards" now days is there?
I thought I saw someone working their butts off in rFactor2 with 67 or
earlier year GP cars? Maybe it was plain old rFactor? Anyway, yep, 2012
should be a good year, just before mankind is wiped off the planet, sometime
this year, right? (refereing to all the Nostradamus stuff, if anyone
believes in that, I have doubts, but teeter both ways, especially with Iran
rattling swords this past week or 2).
