The new expansion comes with more faction ships to earn, modifications to projectile weapons, improvements to the game’s interface, revamp of the in-game mail system and the most talked about change – Sovereignty.

I’m not going to talk about how the new sovereignty system will work as it has been already outlined by CCP here.

But there are definitely interesting times ahead in the world of EVE as large alliances lose ground and smaller alliances fill in the cracks.You can check out the trailer for the Dominion expansion here.

I know this post was late but I was busy playing EVE and looking at the pretty planets and starfields.

Now back to killing rats and blowing up rival alliance members. YARRRRR!!

Edit: Fixed planet image links.

Cheers Mike for pointing out that some of my image links weren’t being linked properly.

You heard it right Windows 7 is now available from your closest retailer in Australia.
For once Australia gets something early thanks to our position on the International Date Line.

Unfortunately the prices are fairly steep compared to the rest of the world.

The above table (source) shows that we pay a fair amount more for our software than our counterparts in other parts of the world, in some cases it is claimed that we pay five times more for our software.
Personally I think it’s because our market in general is smaller than the likes of the US or the UK meaning overall less units will be shipped so retailers have to make up losses somehow, though having worked in the field of computer retailing I’ve seen my fair share of dodgy pricings.

Anyway, good to see Windows 7 being rolled out and thus far I’m pretty happy to part with my hard earned cash for this release of Windows.

Listen to the chick they interview as she impersonates the two men who were bickering with each other before one of them was shot.

Pure gold.
