Sim City

I dunno, people are always slagging off windows, I think it's fine. Especially when you consider that you COULD use a different OS, but then you wouldn't be able to use many programs

Kombucha Reviewed by Kombucha on 11-11-2004. Sim City Ok I know this is a little weird, but if anyone plays any sim city games here can you help me. I don't understand the RCI graph that tell you how much demand there is for residential commercial and industrial areas. If the line is high does it mean there is no demand for something or a lot of demand? Rating: 5

Another Sim City question actually. How do you get to the terrain editor toolbar in Sim City 2000? If you know how to do it in a different game that might help.

lmaoo...
Every other industry in world, is trying to make their product more EFFICIENT with the existing technology, whereas Mircosoft just throw more power at it to make it 'faster'.
When was the last time that WINDOWS worked faster WITHOUT the need to use more processing capability?
The answer you are looking for is 'never'.

That's why WINDOWS sucks, dude

Sure, you have to hand it to Mr Gates - he's got the whole world by the short n curlies, because, as you so rightly said, it is the industry standard.
That doesn't mean that it's the best.
Sure, WINDOWS is a great system (or at least it is when it works), but I just wish that they'd sort out the way it works to make it more efficient.
It's like strapping a V12 into a Mini, it'll go faster, but try stopping the bugger lol
Not the greatest of analogies, but the point is there.

LINUX is far more efficient than WINOWS, but, they haven't got the customer base there to compete with Microsoft...yet.

DOS is even quicker, but not alot of people can work in DOS - WINDOWS bridges the gap between the expert and the average Joe, like you and I, and makes things easier and nicer to look at.

If anyone is interested in trying out another OS without having to mess with your computer you can try Knoppix.

It is about a 700MB download so you need a good connection. Then you just burn it on a CD and reboot your computer with it in the driver and bam you are running Lunix.

When you want to go back to Windows just restart the computer without the CD in the driver.

If the line is high, there is high demand, and if you click on it, you can see the demand for the various sub-sections.

The point is to place the various zones in high desirability areas and build various services, plant trees, build parks, an adequate transportation system to keep in increasing demand to your specifications.

The cool thing about Sim City 4 is that you can connect all the cities to your region, and you can create demand. It's pretty interesting, I made one shithole polluted industrial city, and now working on building a city entirely pollution free right next to it. It's pretty confusing at first, but once you figure out the intricacies, it's such an awesome game!
