I’m in! Atari ST emulators are difficult to use… anyways, it’s surprising that something hasn’t been made similar to this already. Nothing to my knowledge shares the depth of gameplay this does. No doubt it could be expanded upon to brought into the new age of gaming, but this game kicks butt even now.

Doesn’t have to be but a tablet game or something… no need to overdo it… maybe?

I think it’s a hardware failure of some kind. That’s a bit strange, but it’s hard to explain otherwise why my iPad suddenly has these problems, while my wife’s iPad — as noted, exact same model, exact same OS — does not. ..bruce..

You are describing exactly my problem.
I have the I-pad 2 and my husband has the I-pad 3. Worked like a charm till two weeks ago. Now they “see” our home server but for the life of it won’t connect.
I have had an IT guy here for three hours, he couldn’t fix it.
Called our provider, the server is fine.
Talked to Apple for 19 $, whipped the entire I-pad clean and reinstalled, to no avail.
Rebooted the router, everything. Spent about 3 hours on it today, no step closer.

Comment on Capital One locks out Quicken — but for how long? [UPDATED: not for long] by bfwebster

Actually, you can do it for next to nothing. Go to a site like WordPress.com or Blogger.com (or, I’m sure, any number of other blogging sites), and you can set up your own blog quickly and, I believe, for free.
