^^^this is the problem with gaming in australia. When a "game" like wii fit is the best selling game of the year we are in trouble.

that because kids dont have money parents do

[skipppy]

Also, has anyone else got a Wii? I bought Wii Fit for the missus for Xmas (I wasn't being rude - she requested it) and just got a game called Family Ski. Being a snow skier it is a very realistic and highly entertaining game! Thoroughly recommended.

So many people in various forums bag Wii Fit as boring and not worth it, but I have been enjoying it since Xmas - an effective way to get off my ass and do some exercise and have a bit of fun while doing it. I have had many 1.5 hour sessions where I can feel afterward that I have had a decent workout (some of the exercises are absolutely brutal) yet the time flew and was fun. Bizarre - I never though I would get into it - but I have used it much more than Carolyn at this point (but I need to whereas she doesn't lol). I have noticed my fitness and coordination has improved in the short time I have had it, so that is encouraging.

i cant find this family ski anywhere??

where did u buy it from

[Madaz]

didnt look very hard

>>Family Ski<<

>>Wii Ski eBay<<

[gtrkiet]

[kralster]

skippy you never got back about our PM's from aaaggess ago!

[SLAPS]

Wii Fit is quite good.

Along with Family Ski I also have another Skate boarding game that uses the balance board. Difficult to get the hang of at first but great once you do.

cheers for the offer but im getting it off a mate down the road

It is very well sorted Pete. I haven't used it as my daily PC, but have mucked around a fair bit and haven't managed to break it. It basically is what Vista should have been and is quite similar. It is currently stable as.

The biggest revelation is the speed - I have it installed on a spare crappy AMD Sempron 3000 with 1Gb of ram and it runs very sweet indeed. Would no doubt blitz on my quad core Phenom, but I already have a dual boot setup and would not be game to break it with a triple boot scenario.

If you want a copy let me know, but you will need to register with MS for a key (easy to do).

[kralster]

How did you register for a key Andrew?

my brother is running it but I just cracked it.

you got a link ?

also , what drivers will i have to use for my creative x-fi to get sound on w7 ?

or will it automatically apply its own drivers ?

will it pick up my 4gb of ram or just the usual 3.25gb like 32bit os

cheers

Not sure on the answer to all of your questions .... Google is your friend, I guess.

I am running a copy of Windows 7 in VMware under Vista x64. Runs really well with 1gb assigned.

If you want to use the full 4gb simply download Windows 7 x64
