Editor's Corner: Nvidia’s Ion Revisited, 7.1 Ch. LPCM Fixed
Nvidia's Ion for the do-it-yourselfer launched last month in the form of Zotac's mini-ITX motherboard. Though sexy in principle, the platform had some teething pains right out of the gate. Chris Angelini revisits those issues and uses Ion as a real HTPC. Read more
Core i7 Memory Scaling: From DDR3-800 to DDR3-1600
Do you want a quick Core i7 system, but don’t feel confident sticking to Intel's spec and using the DDR3-1066 memory supported by the processor? We benchmark the most relevant memory speed and timing combinations to check the benefit of going faster. Read more
Dead Space: Performance Analyzed
Dead Space is an excellent sci-fi survival horror title, and one of the few games that Nvidia supports with its new driver's ambient occlusion feature. We put the game through our usual image-quality and performance tests to see what we could learn. Read more
Overclocking Core 2 Duo: Power Versus Performance
Intel's fastest Core 2 Duo, the E8600, runs at 3.33 GHz. But if you're a performance-hungry power user, we found that you can actually increase the chip's efficiency by overclocking it, thanks to 45 nm manufacturing and plenty of built-in headroom. Read more

That doesn't make sense. The fcodes that you mentioned - md#, mdh,
mdq, miR - are all *registered* friendly codes. That would mean that
you can't lay mines *at all* when you play with the unregistered
version. Which is not true.
I just did a test with an old host, version 3.21. So your mileage may
vary. 
But I don't think this basic behaviour would change. Let's
see: registered DosPlan, Feds playing. Standard Nocturne with 20 mark
5 and some minerals and megacredits for torpedo building.
Mission = Lay Mines, fcode = mkt: mines are laid, new torps are made.
Mission = Lay Mines, fcode = 3c$ (random): mines are laid, new torps
are made.
Why it didn't work with you I don't know.
