I don't have a netbook, but I know freeciv is an extremely addicted game. Since I've re-installed I have made sure to NOT re-install that game so I can get some sleep at night!

Now it would be really cool to get a few people in the office with netbooks playing the game wirelessly :) That way you run your turn and then wait for everybody else to finish.

Back in college we had a game on our mainframe called Conquest. At times you could not find a terminal because we were all in the process of blowing each other to bits!

It didn't matter that half of us missed our Humanities class since we were all in the same class and didn't want to concede our planets to anybody else.

Been playing "Liquid Wars" lately, great game if you got a spare 10 mins between meetings (Or when the boss is droning on about something boring....) :D

If I had a netbook with me at work I would be immediately sacked. :(

I play against my boss on the network so I do not have to do it secretly. My computer at work is a 22" iMac with core 2 duo cpu's and a 256MB videocard :guitar:

Downside: my boss always wins! grrrrrr

Especially if you like your job!


C-3PO: Nobody cares if a droid loses.

Han Solo: Yeah, but Droids don't rip your arms out when they loose. Wookies have been known to do that.

C-3PO: R2, might I suggest a change in strategy?
