The download keeps cutting out for me when using getright to download it
with, and the server doesn't support resume. Is there a mirror site
somewhere?

Googling the filename F1_v1.3.zip reveals a couple of other download sites;
whether they`re authorised or not, only Mike would know.

Christ isn't an X. X can mean anything when I went to school.

I didn't use the getright app, I just ignored the advice to and DL'd 
with browser. Got it OK without hangups. Don't know of a mirror sorry.

No it's more likely people starting to realise the the majority of christian
celebrations are just stolen pagan ones. eg the birth of jesus was their
winter solstice celebration.

The webpage does not mention anything about minimum specifications, I have a
p3 500, tnt2 and some of the pinmame games struggle a bit, like star trek
the next generation and multiball makes quite a few of the tables slow on my
computer so does anyone know if this f1 table will require more power than
the typical pinmame table?

Anyway, I was running it with a 2500XP with 9600Pro gfx. But, I'm guessing
that's well beyong the min spec?

The only caveat I could see is:
" * Please Note: F1 will not work if you have the latest Detonator 
Drivers (40.72). Nvidia have confirmed this is a problem with their 
drivers (which also effects visual Pinball) and has been fixed in the 
next release of the Detonators.. It works fine with 40.41 drivers."

Being a freeware game I don't think that it would have the bloat that 
comes with some commercial efforts.

It's screen size is very configurable, so you can run it in a smaller 
window if you desire.

I have a P3 not doing very much. I'll install it on that and will 
report back [a bit later - Xmas and all that].

Oops there's that <insert favorite cuss here> X word again :)

Mike, you used to fuck me right off, maybe it was just that I was more 
arrogant and jumped up back then.

>Have a Happy and safe Xmas NC & AC

I'm not one of them but apparently some people get offended using
Xmas, becuase the X crosses out the christ from christmas and
christmas is all about the christ.

CHRISTMAS: The condensed version.

Christmas is the christian celebration of the birth of their saviour, 
Jesus Christ. The festival was adopted from earlier pagan winter 
solstice celebrations celebrating the sun, including the Roman festival 
of Saturnalia celebrated from December the 17th to the 24th; Celtic 
Yuletide which was a twelve-day long festival of feasting around 
November/December; the Roman New Year celebrated on January the first 
when lights and greenery were used to decorate houses in celebration of 
the birth of the undying sun, and presents were given to children and 
the poor.

Other elements of modern christmas celebrations are also adopted from 
earlier pagan celebrations: the christmas tree as a fir tree originates 
with the Oak tree that was sacred to Odin in Norse and Germanic 
tradition, and which was replaced by the fir tree declared to be sacred 
to Jesus by St Boniface in Germany in the 8th century. Mistletoe and 
holly were sacred to the Druids who used them as decorations in their 
winter solstice celebrations to the sun around mid-December.

Christmas was first celebrated around the 2nd century on two dates 
depending upon church; the Roman catholic church adopting December the 
25th and some other churches adopting January the 6th which around the 
5th century became Epiphany.

The Puritans supressed christmas celebrations in Britain and America on 
the justifiable grounds of their pagan origins, however since the 18th 
century when the first christmas cards were produced by the company of 
Goodall of London in 1862, peoples of many cultures, including Jews 
have celebrated christmas in a variety of religious, pagan and other 
ways, with today the Jehova's Witnesses being the only major christian 
objectors to the celebration.

Complaints about the commercialisation of christmas are not new. In the 
19th century Charles Dicken's character 'Ebeneazer Scrooge' in the 
novel 'A Christmas Carol' complains that christmas is a 'humbug' or in 
other words a con or a rip off. 

<http://www.probertencyclopaedia.com/cgi-bin/xphrase.pl?keyword=christ>

IOW: The NAME for what is generally a good piss-up and pig-out and 
exchange of gifts may have been derived from a Christian festival. But 
Christians don't own it and certainly didn't invent it. Why? Because 
the pissing-up and pigging-out and giving of gifts at this time of year 
has been going on since some farmer discovered home-brewing, thousands 
of years before JC was a gleam in his daddy's eye.

X marks the spot.

Its actually just another pagan ritual for most, getting pissed,
getting screwed by the megaconjob that commercial interests
have conned the fools into participating in, and shitfights with
the relos for quite a few of them.

Then again, that fool that was stupid enough to get nailed up
by the romans was rather into shitfights quite a bit of the time.

I wish you god fearing shitheads would keep to your  weak minded selves and 
stop pushing your useless crap on everyone else religion preys on the weak 
and down trodden when you are in that state you will cling to anything to 
give you hope, any strong minded person can see that all the crap that is 
written in the bible is full of miss interpretations and over exaggerations 
by primitive minded people of the time
