    Memory Lane... The Good Old Days of Graphics

    I had a Riva TNT2 and a couple of 8MB Monster 3d II's. The visual quality difference in quake2 was crazy. The pass through and whatever else 3dfx had going on made things look like shit compared to the Nvidia card. TNT2 also had higher resolution without having to use both cards.

    Judge beating his daughter on video

    Talking about me grasping straws. Isn't it much more likely that in reality she liked the lifestyle he afforded her more than she disliked supposed 'CONSTANT abuse'? Most of the vindictive, manipulating, mind game playing turds I know got that way because they know that behavior will get them...
