Also for all those complaining about living out side the US. Local payment is in beta and give it time. Working out digital conversions from currency A to dollars to lindens is tricky. They are doing this so the Linden is not measured against EVERY SINGLE CURRENCY IN CIRCULATION. That would really screw up our economy in sl.

Dare I saw it, maybe the reasion why some of us have tech issues in sl is because we arent using the best gear to run it. I tell people this alot. The max or even upper end settings can't be ran on just ANY computer. I am running an SR2 board with quad fire 6990 graphics cards and 32 gig of rip jaw ram. running into a standard DSL line. I DO NOT CRASH. I am also running with all graphics settings on the hightist settings. To put it bluntly, some SL users are power users as in they have cloat or beleave they do, but not in the since of equipment. The professional users that I knew when I had my first account, the ones who build for around 200 a week, dont actually have a legit problem running it. I hear people on here who supposedly use sl for 1,000 dollar a month land rent businesses say they have issues then I ask for their specs in IM's. Most of them are running rinky dink 8g of ram on a 4000 series radion card or the nvida equivilent. The fact is, the new CEO is pushing the envelope on sl to a point where the best user experince will come for those that have 16 gig of ram on a system with atleast a 6850 card feeding into a dedicated DSL. For the longest time SL use to be for cheap thrills, now we have some one who is brining it to the for front. Lot of people will need to bite the bullet and update and some of these big dollar users will need to start spending the dollars on getting newer better rigs that actually support what they want to do in sl. Also, I am glad for the new users. I am also glad for the new services and user names. I am a social user and to put it bluntly, its hard to ger alot of people in one place very quickly so I like being able to send a quick social message to tell people where Ill be at if they want to join me. If I dont want them to be there, I just wont post in the status thread. Its that easy. Over all, I have been a user since the day after it came out of beta and things arent that bad. Lot of places are gone but things arent that bad. Up time is good, we can move decently, we are getting Ai and mesh tools. Fact, this new man is aiming for User excperince stuff then we have ever gotten and he is delivering. Unlike other CEO's before him that didnt really care, this man is taking a very active intrest.
