Interesting little game :thumbsup:

That game is too easy, and I get bored of games too easily. 4000000 on with the first ball before I quit.

Pinball is my favorite game! That was fun!

Try it on a Pentium Pro or faster, may speed up a bit (walked into that one, you divvy!)

Coaching session begins:: Now young Pi, I've laid the bait, like a shiny lure glistening in the stream. summon up the forces from Pie Country and Resist RESSSSSSSSIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIISSSSSSSSSSSSTTTTTTTTT the urge to come back with "I've got a P12 with a terabyte of ram and geforce 6million graphics card with freon intercooling" or similar.

I will be marking your response on my return from Cardiff this evening. Good luck with this test.

It won't work with my Cyrix 286??? (I actually have one!!!)

This (http://store.sun.com/CMTemplate/CEServlet?process=SunStore&cmdStartWebConfig_CP&familyCode=AMAZON25&baseSelected=2) is my current computer: 288 GB RAM, 18 processor/memory uniboards, 72 1.5 GHz CPUs with 3 MB L3 cache, etc.

If you right click and choose LOW QUALITY it tends to run a little better

Thanks, but I have T3 with my server, so it doesn't matter. ;)

That is Sooooo Old School... :D :D

Indeed Baboon.
I've decided to move on from these silicon based systems, going for wired neural networks. I'm just getting a load of pizza parlour workers and wiring them together. A lot cheaper, and provided you feed them a steady supply of wikipidea pages (which they take as gospel), they can be relied upon to churn out garbage at a reasonable rate.
Slight drawback is your nerd tax goes up a lot and you break out in a nasty little rash. :rotflmao:

Hahahaha

Neural network? Pfft. Limited to the size of neutrons. Haven't you heard quantum computing (http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/3774369.stm) is all the rage these days?
