    I tend to agree in that this isn't anything that new or revolutionary. Sure the topic seems cool off hand if you aren't paying attention however, Microsoft's Kinect essentially is the same thing. The only difference is you don't strap a Xbox360 to your back and walk around with it; which as CommonTater pointed out - why would you want to?

    And I am sure Microsoft is planning on exposing the interface through the XNA framework so if you are willing to play with C#, and pay the membership fee) you could design apps like this as well. Probably something even cooler due to the processing power of the 360.

    They are doing even better than that. They are preparing a Windows Kinect SDK.

    Sweet, I figured they would. I dropped playing with XNA a little while back, so I stopped following the whole thing. However, with the ability to play with it on my computer....now this is something I might look into.

    Quzah, your witful prose is a constant source of amusement.

    How about you just worry about learning how to program in C first.
    Wholly unfair...programming in C is way too hard.
    I'm not immature, I'm refined in the opposite direction.

    LOL.....well at least it was for our friend V, he was more the 'talk about programming type'. In his short lived stint on this site he managed to alienate most of the members without posting any code. In fact the one time he posted code resulted in ending his stay with us.

    I don't think Vxyz is on this board anymore. As for your question, did you try this before asking?

    9. Users are allowed only one account unless they are given special permission to hold multiple accounts. Users may not share their account or password with others.
    Now since vxyz and vee share the same ISP, and other profile similarities, I rather suspect that they are the same person.

    If vee's posts look different in attitude and content, then perhaps they are different people.
    But if it seems vee is a clone, well, guess what happens then....

    Time will tell no doubt.
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.

    Perhaps that should read:

    I C banned people.

    My sixth sense tells me that this thread has outlived its purpose.

"Finding the smallest program that demonstrates the error" is a powerful debugging tool.
