All windows vista versions except vista basic and business edition include media center, maybe i generalized a little, but i hardly think businesses who purchased a license for vista business edition are also going to be playing with emulators in the office. My point is that the home operating system environment is pushing towards using your television as an additional display. Since microsoft is pushing for HDTV/Gamepad support for all windows games released in the future, this is going to be a lot more common.
So, half have it, and half don't. I use vista business because my school gives it away. home operating systems aren't making the "tv as a second display push" at all. the push is toward a dedicated media center pc. the fact that you can run media center on a second monitor eases the transition. and nobody said that you need to buy a work computer now. save up for a couple months. office apps and basic internet browsing requires a rock bottom pc. like i said 200-300$

how sad is that? just because you insulted me after doesn't change the hypocrisy here. This topic is beyond done.

computing isn't moving away from the desk, as you apparently don't want to do excel or word on your big tv. it's just including the living room. the fact that your request would help out a whopping five people doesn't help. and the fact that you're still insisting tells me that you haven't read the FAQ in the development forum. you can't stand being insulted, but you don't cover your bases, either.

Hypocrisy? I only assumed i was arguing with a minor, sometimes you have to call a spade a spade, no name calling intended. if you are literally not a child, i would be very surprised.

obviously you and i have different priorities, saving up to buy a second computer to perform tasks i can already do on the one i'm using now is absurd. your solution is an expensive one, and maybe daddy and mommy could purchase you a new computer for each computing task you wish to perform, but there are plenty of people who use media center functions on the same computer they use office and gaming functions. Yes, computers can be multipurpose. like i said, do us both a favor and stop posting in this thread.

any way back to the topic at hand, when i have two displays activated in windows, i cannot drag zsnes into the second display. anyone else have this problem?

I've already explained the what the issue is. It doesn't need a second person to confirm this.

You're both full of shit and terminally retarded.

This thread deserves a lock.

sweener employs inferior logic backed by a spoiled rich kid's disposition.
