Hazard beat me to it... but yeah, the Staples near my office has a huge Apple section.

"better get something so we can compare the size of it." "oh here is a coffee mug" "see how small it is compared to this mug?" Wtf? It was pretty easy to tell how big it was since you were HOLDING IT IN YOUR HANDS. Oh unless you maybe have giant freak hands? Hadn't thought about that...

It's possible that the photographer hired to take these photos performed the manipulation and Google never noticed.

Nice timing, I have been thinking of an upgrade!

Ya, going through one time (on normal) without using the AH is very easy. Even nightmare is doable without buying gear. It gets noticeably harder after that. Blizzard themselves said that the drop system was designed to encourage trading/buying loot on the AH.

Main problem with this is that the game is designed around the AH. It would be VERY hard to make your way through the game without buying/trading gear. If they offered an offline version, they would have to change the loot drops for that version IMO.

I don't quite understand how the checkpoints/saving work... For example, I was in one of the quest dungeons and got the "jar of souls" achievement. I continued on my way, finished the quest and went back to town. I logged off the game and relogged about 15min later. I then had to go back to a...

I think they changed the file that is linked from your account page now that the game is live. There were (now only google cached) instructions on battle net to download the "Diablo-III-8370-enUS-Installer-downloader.exe", which is what is linked in the OP. This .exe downloads the 8gb of...

Thank you sir! I had seen those links, but assumed they would just do the same thing as the links on the account page.

I can't post on the battlenet forums to ask this, since I don't have a character created... maybe someone here knows. I have purchased the digital copy from Blizzard. Is there a way for me to download the game at work and put it on a USB stick to take home, WITHOUT installing it at work? I...

Ah, cool stuff. Is a wireless "bridge" and an wirelss "access point" the same thing?

Current setup: Wireless router upstairs, connected to DSL modem. All the devices in the house connect to it. Now I want to put my bluray player, which is located on the main floor, onto the network but it only has a wired connection. I can not run cable from the wireless router to the...
