I'm really really looking forward to this game, I want it for PS3 but it sucks it comes out a little later >_<

+1 Same here :) Was hoping someone would make a Dragon Age Origins thread and now it's true :p I am definitely getting this game on PC since imo this game is easier to play on the PC than controller.

O man that comic was epic just like the game. Went through the character creator and set up 4. Man Im gonna spend all my time untill Mass Effect 2 playing through this game, screw MW2 lol. And dam the soundtrack sounded great.

I can't wait for this. I am such a huge fan of Bioware! I absolutely loved Baldurs Gate, and the first NWN, and Mass Effect.. and pretty much everything they've ever did! I picked up Risen for PC, and it's pretty fun, reminds me of The Witcher. It will hold me over until November 3rd!

They are asking for quite a bit more for those that run Vista. Either way, one usually need to have the recommended specs to fully enjoy something like this.

RECOMMENDED SPECS

* CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad 2.4Ghz Processor or equivalent - AMD Phenom II X3 Triple-Core 2.8 GHz or greater

* RAM: 4 GB (Vista) or 2 GB (XP)

* VIDEO: ATI 3850 512 MB or greater - NVIDIA 8800GTS 512 MB or greater

While many Neowinians can probably handle this, it means upgrade time for me. Again there are asking for significantly more RAM for those running Vista (twice as much in this case).

Edited by Fred Derf

Thanks for posting that, Fred Derf. I exceed all the recommended specs except for the CPU. I have an Intel Core 2 Duo E6750 @ 3.2 GHz. It should be enough to run it at medium-high settings.

This is useful when you are disconnected or when you must create diagrams in a highly secure environment, where data protection is of the utmost importance. When you use the draw.io desktop app, your diagrams will be stored on your local device. Because this is a stand-alone application, also designed to run offline, there are no interfaces to cloud storage platforms available. Of course, you can still store your diagrams in folders that are synchronised to your cloud storage if you wish. Easy-to-use diagram editor The draw.io apps work just like the office and drawing tools you are used to using. Drag and drop shapes from the shape libraries and drag to draw connectors between them.

    • Microsoft will soon allow some users to block Copilot from analyzing their Office files by Usama Jawad Microsoft Purview is a pretty useful data governance, security, and management service that allows customers to gain enhanced visibility and control over their content. It's meant for commercial customers, such as organizations that are storing data at scale. As AI continues to expand and infiltrate every corner of a firm, many are a bit conscious about the technology gaining access to their confidential data. Microsoft is now making a configuration change that will allow such customers to rest easy. Right now, users within an organization have the option to apply Purview sensitivity labels (when available) to secure certain files and label them as such. For example, if you apply the "Confidential" label on an Excel file, the file will be encrypted, and a "confidential" watermark will be applied to it. So, if this file is shared with anyone, they are aware that its access is supposed to be restricted. Up until now, Microsoft was allowing some connected experiences, like its AI services, to analyze files, regardless of their sensitivity label. This is of major concern to most organizations, as a recent example highlighted how confidential emails with data loss prevention (DLP) policies like privacy labels were being uploaded to Copilot for analysis. As such, Microsoft is updating an existing Purview data label sensitivity setting that prevents "some connected experiences that analyze content", from being blocked completely from doing this. The label isn't changing, but the blocking is now being enforced across all connected services (including Copilot and other AI tools), and now extends to Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. Files with the label applied already will get this enhancement automatically too once it becomes available. Microsoft has urged IT admins to inform their respective helpdesk and compliance teams, update internal documentation, and review sensitivity labels to ensure that they meet their respective compliance needs. This change is tagged as MC1297982 in the Message Center. General availability is scheduled to begin in a phased manner soon and will complete by the end of next month. That said, it is important to note that this only applies to commercial customers who have a license that allows them to use Purview.
