Yeah, Macs are trying to get more games for themselves while Microsoft is trying to promote the Xbox by making PC gaming more difficult.

They even go as far as paying game companies to make games exclusively for xbox, or remove multiplayer, coop play or a host of other good features on PC in the hopes people will buy xbox version instead. I think they are shooting themselves in the foot by doing so.

Windows 7 Latency Registry Fix

After setting up Windows 7 and finally fixing WoW freezing up at the loading screen, I noticed my normal latency just about doubled. I was sitting anywhere from 400 to 500ms where I am normally around 200.

I tried a number of different things, but these fixes worked for me:

*USE THIS ONLY ON WINDOWS 7*
* Open Regedit
* Navigate to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\Tcpip\Parameters\Interfaces
* Find the interface folder that is currently in use. It will be the one that has an IPAddress and the most fields.
* Right click on the interface and choose New -> DWORD (32-bit) Value. Name it: “TcpAckFrequencyâ€
