I have an iPhone 4s. It really doesn't matter to me, it is something I carry around, but something I barely use. Perhaps its sole use is notifying me when I get comments on Youtube. Other than that, it pretty much serves little purpose. I don't install a ton of apps, Youtube is pretty much it. I don't call or text anyone, my father uses it to communicate with me, so my entire call history is just my father and the occasional wrong number. I just hate the limited battery life, trying to watch a Youtube video makes it die in about half an hour. It might be defective.

You are definitely living a serious life of crime. You could corrupt those sticks! Yeah, I understand not breaking habit. I grew up in a household where my mother would only download things, I never would get them physically, and so that is what I was used to. I got some physical games later on, such as Thief, but now the problem is I don't have a functional CD drive, so it makes more sense just to get ISOs. So my actual copies tend to sit in storage, there is no real storage for it in my house. Maybe when I change my living conditions I can get an actual CD drive, there are quite a few obscure titles pretty much impossible to find, plus I like having the CDs just for the extras that come on them. I really would like to get original copies of some of my favorite titles, like Thief 1.14, as the one I have is somewhat buggy. I have yet to find the original, as in fully original, version of Unreal as well. Quake really is the one I have had the best luck with, ironic since the main site for its community went down a few years ago. I lament that I didn't have a hard drive filled with Quake levels when Gamespy went down, I am possibly one of the only ones who would have cared enough to archive 1996 levels. Aftershock is nice, the levels are pretty much levels online, but the need for their own texture pack means it is different from how it originally was. Then again, the bug where loading one level with a certain texture name makes it persist throughout the session means you could just load a Quake level before the custom level... except for the problem that I think some of the texture sizes are different and it would cause it to crash. I think I tried back in the past to combine it with my Q2 and Dark Hour levels so I could load all of them in one server. Doesn't work.

Pretty much. Windows 8.1 interestingly enough is even better with those wrappers than Windows 7. Multiple monitors works better, it flickers less, it is a more stable experience. Windows 7 isn't unbearable, but in hindsight it was inferior. I found Windows 8.1 a better experience for playing Thief. Which of course means it is a great OS for me as that is essentially my biggest requirement.

Or blue cheese...
