I get where you are coming from.... but... and it's a big but (Insert Sir Mix-a-lot joke here.
)....
Let's say I was stinking rich and I
chose, for whatever reason, to own a family runabout
instead of a sports car. I can say, over and over again, how annoyed I am that all my friends are zipping around at 150mph and yet I can, just about, manage 60mph before I start to hear bits of my engine fall off..... but that was
my choice, wasn't it? It would be best if I just either a) accepted responsibility for my choice or b) bit the bullet and bought a Ferrari. What I certainly wouldn't do is expect all my sports car owning mates to drive around at 50mph to make me happy.
As a father I have to make all kinds of difficult budgeting decisions (Well.. not difficult per se as, of course, my son comes first every time.).... I can take him to Legoland
or I can take him down the local park and, therefore, actually be able to afford food and nappies for the little chap. I wouldn't expect every other parent on the planet, regardless of their income, to never go to Legoland out of some strange sense of totally unearned loyalty to me.
I've only got an HD 6770 and 4gb of ram so I'd just like to state just how disgusted I am with all the people on this forum who are playing with high/very high graphics settings! Shame on you, people! Shame on you!
