Not really.  The real problem is when the OS can't handle the
amount of memory required.  I think Win32 compatibility is
going to finally kill the Windows PC as a gaming platform,
which is why XBox 360 is Microsoft's future where they can be
"64-bit clean" (without compatibility issues).

Wasn't sure I should post it, but I'm glad I did.
BTW, I assume you're running the demo then?

Let me know when you get BF2 so we can play.
In fact, I'd love to call you up while we play.

Because it'll be seconds after my Athlon64 3200+ and GeForce
7800GTX and I have already frag'd your punk-bitch ass before
your Simpleton 2800+ and 6600GoeTee finishes updating your
(soon to be) bloody screen.  @-ppp

Just kidding.  ;->
