Maddog 2006

Hey Brian! Didn't realize you were in the Beta team!I must admit I'm a little bit anxious about how the addition of VC will affect FPS.

Well, I guess I'm not really officially on the team, I wasn't pre-release, and was only asked to test SP1.I am amazed how hard Davide works to get things done, though. I remember that from testing 1.51E for MD2004. He's done a tremendous job listening and responding to issues, at least from my point of view.As far as the VC goes, guess we'll see. We have a good few months at least before that becomes a concern, but, I really have a feeling that will push it over the edge, at least on my geriatric machine.
