Go up one level in this thread


This is what I wanted to happen. I had a LAN all planned and stuff... was going
to get some food, beer and other stuff like that and sit down w/ Slate and
benchmark all weekend. I don't know what happened.. I guess he decided he didn't
want to come down. He is always welcome as I said before. I would have liked to
have done all this in person and looked over everything to make sure everything
is completely fair & all the proper optimizations/settings are being used on
both box's.
