My son saved his penneys, and bought an Alien Area 51, and subscribed
to DSL. I played for the first time on his computer the other night.
Techno-envey and power lust have me big time. I still limp along on a
nearly three year old etower 600mh rig with limited memory and graphics.

To cruise the Bazaar with hardly a hitch. To visit POK and be able to
move in a normal fashion. Ah.

The good news is we work different schedules with different days off.
Since we (gasp) share an account, we can't play at the same time,
anyway. So, on my days off I borrow his system and live the EQ life
the way it was intended to be lived.

Otherwise I play Gamecube. Almost done with Windwaker. Stalled in
Metroid Prime; gotta get in there and try harder. And I actually play
Animal Crossing every day. That would be so uncool if the game weren't
so well designed and balanced. You can't kill anything, but I
surrounded Bill's house with pitfalls. How's that for evil AC?

I really appreciate the gaming community here. You all enhance my
gaming experience.
