Update forum descriptions?

[MJCfromCT]

Just a thought, but maybe it is time to update the forum descriptions on SysOpt...

Discuss any software apps, plus OS's: Win98/95, WinNT, Win2k, WinXP,Linux, BeOS, etc.

Aside from the grammatical error in this (no space after the comma after WinXP), I think we can remove Win 95, maybe include Vista

Discuss 2D cards, 3D accelerators, and monitors.

2D cards? Yeah...maybe its time to leave 1998 behind. What about something saying this is where you can discuss Nvidia, ATi, CRTs, and LCDs?

Discuss hard drives, CD-ROM/CD-RW/CD-R, other removable, and misc. storage topics.

Nothing in here about DVD media which has been around for quite some time now...

Discuss benchmarking, post your results, 3DMark 2000/2001, Sandra, all others.

3DMark2000? Again, this is 2006!

Discuss the RC5-64 effort, distributed.net, SETI@Home and other projects.

Isn't RC5-64 long dead? What about folding@home, einstein@home?

What do you say, time to shake the cobwebs off, SysOpt?

And I was just beginning to find my way around........Sounds like a good idea tho.

PS: Maybe update some of the Stickies and their links.

When was the last time you heard of someone buying a 2D video card, installing Windows 95, or running 3DMark2000 to benchmark their system?
