after some more digging around I learned that vista uses an updated method of handling the boot menus. Boot.ini simply does not work with vista.

Vista uses a BCD file to handle booting and there is handy application I found called Easybcd (http://neosmart.net/dl.php?id=1) that can edit/restore vistas boot settings and write them to the BCD.

It was a simple matter of restoring the bcd and restarting the pc :)

...about this.

I'm interested... 

 

it does mean they're working on a new radiant based on the 1.4 source... so that's kind of cool for people that didn't really like 1.5. 

""We appreciate what you guys have done over the years in building the popularity of [Quake 3]," said id CEO Todd Hollenshead. "We also like 'free.'" "

All due respect, Todd - but id likes 'free' now that the money has been made. Nothing wrong with that but let's not start painting ourselves as pure and altruistic suddenly. 

is nice. Fast. Localized. Downloaded a nice theme. I put a weather and clock widget on too. 

I hope they dont fuck them up! I played on ET - Quake Wars Demo and couldn't get it!

Classes and team work? If Carmack likes straight up death match, it's not hard to imagine him not getting something like ET. 

imagine that.

Except that nobody said they were lost. They said they were uncontacted which has a specific meaning in this situation.

There are hundreds of uncontacted tribes on the planet. 

Except that nobody said they were lost.

Except, that is exactly what was initialy claimed.

"We did the overflight to show their houses, to show they are there, to show they exist," said Jose Carlos dos Reis Meirelles, an expert on uncontacted tribes at Funai. "This is very important because there are some who doubt their existence."

You certainly don't go looking for the proof of the existence of 'found' things. 

The text you quoted specifically uses the word "uncontacted" and specifically does not use the word "lost".

Anyway... 

Here's a quote from someone else I saw that sums it up decently:

"Saying it's a hoax doesn't really fit, imo. Yeah, they knew about the tribe, but the tribe is still uncontacted at this point, no? Reading up on it further, it seems like people knew about this tribe and others, but no contact really exists with them." 

what does lost in this context mean and why is it better than 'uncontacted' 

To me, 'lost' would mean that we once had them and then misplaced them while bringing in the groceries resulting in a 15 minute search the following morning before going to work and being late as a result. That's very different from 'uncontacted'. 

It isn't free, you pay with your eyeballs. 

the whole time!
Inertia:
Theyre not taking my eyeballs, I'll stick to UT3 if that's the case 

TF2 was the game that finally pulled me away from Q3 online. Quake Zero might be the game that draws me back...

I'm sick of being a team player. There is a unique joy in winning in an individualist deathmatch game.

And there is always Sauerbraten... 

Yeah, but playing in a web browser while ads dance and flash around the edges? No thanks. 

There are ad blockers and whatnot nowadays.
