Notes from a multi-machine player

OK I am currently using 0.914 on 3 machines. Overall I love the game. However I do have one gripe that I hope is beta only. I do not always have Internet acess when I am away from home. I drive a truck for a living. There are a lot of places where my cellular modem does not work nor do I have the option of using Wi-Fi. I hope that the need to be connected to the Internet for Retail release will be for ACTIVATION ONLY, please.

 

Now for a list of the machines

#1 AMD Phenom II 840 (Quad-core w/ no L3 cache) 3.2GHz

     Asus Mainboard w/ AMD 880G chipset

     16GB DDR3 1600 memory (@1333)

      Sapphire Radeon 6570 Video w/ 2GB video meory

     Windows 7 x64 Home Premium

 

#2  AMD Phenom II 840 (Quad-core w/ no L3 cache) 3.2GHz

     Biostar Mainboard w/ AMD 790GX chipset

     8GB DDR2 800 memory

      Sapphire Radeon 6570 Video w/ 2GB video meory

     Windows 7 x64 Home Premium

 

#3   HP G61-336NR Laptop

       AMD Athlon II M300 CPU (2.0 GHz dual-core no L3 cache)

       AMD 880G chipset w/ 128MB dedicated VRAM for Radeon HD 4250 (Integrated) graphics

       4GB DDR2 800 memory

       Windows 7 x64 Ultimate

 

Believe it or not the game runs very acceptably on the laptop. While it is a bit slower than the much more capable desktop systems it runs smoothly and does not crash any more either. In fact I have not had any crashes w/ 0.914 so far.
