Even thought I don't have a 3d sound card, I was unable to turn the sound
realism up at all. I had turned it down previously to save resources on my
slow ass poota, but when it's all the way down you don't hear the ching when
you level. We all know how important that is. :)

Strange I thought, wondering what it could be. Then lo and behold the next
time I ran EQ the slider could move again.

But don't start me on system lag (what I've always called the non PL or ping
induced lag). At times I have lost count of how many clicks on 'done' it
takes to get out of my inventory, or to open a door. There are some parts of
some zones where I get almost a quarter of a frame per second. Usually they
are the parts you have to go through to escape trains. :\
