If we were to upgrade that hardware design to say Speccy 4 or 2023 for that matter... What CPU, GPU, and OS would we use?

Few quick tips: Who are you? What company runs this website? Who are the founders / their background, previous projects, what type of support they bring to this website? what guarantee is given to users, who is already using this app, what does he / she say about it?

Also, how about using anything related to money in your logo?

Cheers,

I've been around long enough to tell you that when an employer is judging you based on your education, this company is so boring, most probably run by academic heads who will bore you to death.

Run, run for your life, Steve Jobs and Bill Gates, among many, are also drop outs.

My 2 cents and I mean NO disrespect to Android, Android users or devs.

Peace all.

It was meant to be something in between connectedhq.com and Plaxo.

The thing is that Plaxo is full of options and packages that one can't tell which option to go with.

Re:PlayStation 2 emulator PCSX2 reaches v1.0 on Tuesday August 07, 2012 @01:43PM (#4351218)
Technically, you are correct, but let's not forget that hefty legal charges drove Bleem! out of business, and for that I blame Sony.
Re:PlayStation 2 emulator PCSX2 reaches v1.0 on Monday August 06, 2012 @06:54PM (#4347741)
I wonder when would Sony eradicate that project, like they did with Bleem...

I wonder how many of you remember the good old Bleem emulator?

It's not that easy in Sudan's case... That does not imply that toppling Mubarak was easy.
