Final GDC prep is wrapping up. Tomorrow I'm going to be spending all day going through all my emails and making sure I have contact info stored, meeting times noted, schedule up-to-date, etc etc. Then I have to ensure I can remote connect into my desktop, that my laptop is set up for travel, and th…

So tonight was the seventh bi-annual Demo Night. I've done previous coverage of Demo Night here on GDNet, you can find my coverage of Demo Night VI here and my coverage of Demo Night V here. Before Demo Night V I had been a participant in the original Demo Night, which went down at the Large Animal…

I meant to post this last nite but I kinda got tired, laid down in bed to take a break and read, and ended up passing out until the light of morning. D'oh.

Sooooo I've just waited till I had somethin…

This usually isn't the case, because the majority of people who do so have a lot of passion for what they are doing. I mean, they certainly haven't gotten in the position of being able to work out…

Well it took me until day 4 of vacation to finally veg out and stop working beyond checking emails and forums and websites to keep up to date on events, but it happened. My family drug me off to Aruba and I was determined to keep working because I hate taking time off this time of year but the simp…

The Intel article that was scheduled for today has been delayed. Richard did a technical review on it and Intel decided to re-evaluate the article for publishing. I suppose I should really say "re-publishing" as it's already been on the Intel developer site since October. So what's going on? Are we…
