DirectX 10, Vista, and the Future of Gaming
Posted by Stephen on

If you folks aren’t busy tomorrow, tune into to this live Web presentation. It features Johnny Hou (NZXT and iBuypower) who we interviewed last year, executives from the Microsoft Team, and…ME!
That’s right! Futurelooks will be respresented on this expert panel by yours truly. We’ll be answering questions during the event and giving our point of view on how DirectX 10 and Vista will change the face of gaming. Looks like I’ll be staying up late studying.
The event starts at 3:30 PM, Pacific Standard time. I recommend that you go register and download the Netmeeting software in advance. The software also has a web based version so if you’re at work, you should still be able to join us and submit your questions. For more information on the event you can head to the iBuypower Event Info Page for details.
I’m super nervous since I’ve never done anything like this before. Even worse, I’ve been branded an expert! No pressure huh?
Hope to see you all there and wish me luck!
PS: iBuypower is also offering a $50 rebate for anyone that registers and attends the netmeeting plus a chance to win one of two copies of Microsoft Flight SimulatorX.






Good Luck Stephen, you should have no problem dealing with this.
Thanks
Just hoping not to disgrace myself too badly
You must be a gamer, (the dot com mogul thing, time on your hands right? lol.) kidding. I am curious how you like Vista and if you feel secure with it?
Security is probably one of the strongest strengths of Vista. However, gaming is a bit of a mixed bag. Maybe what I’ll do is recap my experience tomorrow with a blog post going over the gaming aspects that we’ll be talking about.
On of the managers here wants to play FlightSimX. I’ve seen a couple of screenshots and it looks sweet! I’ve played MS Flight Sim ever since the first one back in the days of my Apple Macintosh LCIII and my mouse yoke!
Get him to tune in. I could use the Audience!
