The sex scene animation apparently is, yes. |
Leno: Lots of games have incomplete material in them because programmers are too lazy to take it out, actually. But one would think that Rockstar would have exercised common sense in thinking about what that could do if it was released.

Just curious here, since I know a few of you are total whizzes when it comes to this stuff. |
I want to get a DVD-RW drive for my PC, possibly tomorrow. I would have gotten it installed for a rather cheap additional fee ($25) but that got derailed when they told me they could have it done in "3-4 days". Totally unacceptable. Anyways, I'm likely going to get an LG drive, which Future Shop here is selling as a "Dynex" model; people who have opened the box have noticed that they're packaging a perfectly good LG drive in it. Top specs and 48x on CD-R burning, which is what I was looking for. In any event... Actually, I'll do one better and take a pic. Side of my PC (high detail) Now here's the deal - the drive on the top (I can take a better picture if needed) is the one I'm going to replace. That's a CD-RW drive. So... Here's my question. I want to see if it's easy for me to install it. Would it be as simple as to slide the drive out (the side of the PC can be screwed out so I can work through there instead of through the back), take note of where all the wires went and just plug them back into the new drive? Or are there other steps that I need to take? Because in all honesty, if it's not going to take long at all I'd much rather save $30-40 on an install. Any tips/words of wisdom/reassurances would be appreciated.

...I've never read it. |
Welcome to the club, Hiryuu. (I probably will want to read them someday but my reading list is backed way the fsck up.)

Well you shouldn't eat the stuff ALLLLL the time. |
I still like to eat Alpha-Getti and Zoodles. :\ (Do they still make the latter... hm.)

...Tuna with bits of celery on a bun. I can take that nooooo problem. Sucks to be Hiryuu I guess. |
I'm definitely picky however... tomatoes/onions/peppers/stuff like that can stay FAR away from my subs. A lot of people have also praised the McDonald's subs that we have here in Canada. I think they're exclusive to here... But in any event, they actually use fresh ingredients and aren't too bad. Quiznos should be coming to Quebec very soon, they'll probably open one up around here.

What's Xk's problem? |
I think Mesia's Pet is a cute little nickname, plus you're a very lucky guy. *remembers when Mesia and Dani fought over my love...*

I don't know who did. |
All I remember was that one night in 2002, Mesia and Dani decided to play some ZSNES online with each other, and I believe the game in question was one of the Sailor Moon action fighting games. The rest of said LJ post was absolutely tremendous, with both of them claiming that they were Colleen's Angels and so forth. Both of them were in my good list for good after that one.

I NOTICED the dust on that board, yeah. Forgot that the screenshot would be THAT detailed. The problem is that I have a fan in the back of the unit, but my room picks up a lot of dust due to the PC, so... yeah. :\ It's not like I open up the thing often either. |
Could I use the pre-existing wires for the new drive? I can't see there being any voltage concerns... The cables seem to be pretty standard. Drivers aren't a problem since I definitely know my way around those. (I just want to cover all my bases here... The last time I tried to install something into a PC myself was with the Compaq and that was a near disaster since there were tons of wires and ribbons to work around. This is a lot easier since I can work my way in through the side.)

Xk: Cruelty (or flattery) will get you nowhere. |
neo: Oh god I hope so. XD Preferrably female too.

I changed the name but I wasn't the one who came up with it, Mesia. *hides* |
Hiryuu: That's what I meant. Side-scrolling fighting like Final Fight. Nice to see we remember the good old days.

On a side note, a TON of people are going to have one (at least) addition to the list after tonight, I think. |
All thanks to me.

I can't handle too much dark chocolate either. Don't know why. |
I like white chocolate but again, too much of that sweet stuff and my belly flips. Milk chocolate is the easiest kind for me to gorge on.

RY's name changed by request. |
To the best of my ability of course. We're past the slave stage, people.

I think I just 1-Up'ed myself thanks to a suggestion from Cymoro. |

The picture in question. |
Hiryuu still wouldn't play with me.

I like it when Colleen is like this it makes me horny! |
Look at your name. It says "Restraining Order". You break the restraining order, you start getting put in jail.

Grey potions would likely take health AWAY from you if you were stupid enough to quaff one. |
(The title today, of course, was a reference to Tamarin.)

Yeah, but when you get named back I strip you of the custom title. |
And yes, Tom's right. You had better back off and QUICKLY. *glares* |
