yea i agree with punk just use slickdeals and look for dell deals. i got a co-worker a dual core 17in widescreen 60gb hd 1gb ram laptop for 599 shipped. you just have to wait for dell end of quarter sales where they usually mark things 50-60% off. When they do the sales with the coupons marked you have to ack fast. since usually its 2,000 laptops or a certain item at that price. and they usually sell out with in hours. Alot of resellers buy them and resell on ebay for profit.
well xquake itself was going to die regardless. The server owner was going to pull the plug, the box itself was turning into a resource hog for one client named debbie sucking up the server resources on email So to keep it alive and transparent the redirect was implemented as not to loose many players. It was a pretty good transistion considering the server lag xquake was going through. but it was dated hardware. I think after time xquake/tastyspleen evolved due to player requests. while most players went one direction the older style servers now just ports are seldmom visited. Sure i miss the old xquake days but tastyspleen has evolved into quite a monster to support all these ports/mods for everyone. Im sure if there were more resources and a demand more things could be implemented.
