I'm tending to agree with basically everyone here. She does not need an iPod Touch because she is too young and she has enough already. I'd get her a Sony Walkman that plays tapes though!

If there isn't a \"Best Topics of the Last Year\" award, then there needs to be one. If there is one, this needs to be in the running for 2010.

Re: Hey there

I'm assuming so since they are working on the same code base (as opposed to branching off) that you worked on? All the same, that is one awesome list! Looking forward to getting my hands ...

3D powerup orientation & rotation

Is it just me or do the 3D objects not spin the same way than the normal sprites? For instance, the 3D Vulcan spins in a random direction compared to the sprite spinning only horizontally.

Is this a bug cause if so I can fill out a bug form.

Sad that you don't like the OS. I hope it is Linux that you like and not Windows.
