Great job on the radars Tater

August 1944 in Makassar straight, ran into a convoy with one large Nippon Maru Tanker and two escorts.I was able to get in close on the surface, was at less than 6000 yards and the Momi's radar didnt get me, was pretty awseome being able to do this like they did in RL even when enemy had radar, thanks Tater.

I sunk the Tanker

Glad I could be of assistance.

I'm playing with my new toy right now... an i7 iMac. HUGE screen. Gorgeous. Dead silent. Not quiet, silent. I've gotta get windows installed on this puppy to see how it runs SH4. If it does... I'm seriously considering dumping my gaming rig for another one (unless I can get Jan Kyster to help me pick stuff to make a completely noiseless gaming PC with better specs...).

Once I get bootcamp sorted out I'll likely make a combined mod for the various RSRDC_for_TMO fixes—including some group cfg issues I found.

That and throwing JMM out the door.

Tater- I'm running SHIV on my i6. You'll be fine running it on XP via Boot Camp. Note, you'll have to run the Boot Camp update before getting XP to SP3.

BootCamp allows a Mac to be dual boot (given the CPU is the same as an intel windows box). Meaning hold a key down on startup, and the mac will use a windows partition, and boot in XP/vista/etc.

This thing is amazing. It makes no noise at all. None. I have to listen hard to hear the HDD going during a large copy off the other machine. At idle my gaming rig is far noisier. The only time that PC is as quiet as this thing is asleep or off (then it is identically quiet).

I know I sound obsessed with sound, but when you have a computer in one room that makes zero noise, then you go to another machine that makes, well, quite a bit, even purposely designed to be as quiet as possible, the difference is noticeable.

Glad to see the economy has no effect on you...
