My favorite product has got to be Minesweeper

I concur. The stainless steel thing may be true, but most of these tips are worthless.

I haven't taken the test in about 16 years, but I have to say that I'd still seriously consider buying this game.

It should help your vocabulary and sharpen your arithmetic skills. There's nothing wrong with that.

Even if the timer was set to "randomly, but only once a year" people would still camp it.

Those commuters are not 'crunching numbers.' Sudoku involves NO math.

Sometimes, landing at the next flight point is still a long way from where you want to be. I'd love the following two options:

For the first 15-60 seconds (somewhere in that range) of a flight, let me turn around and go back to where I started. This'll stop all those times you forgot to repair, or buy arrows, or picked the wrong destination... whatever. Recommended cost: just what you paid the flight master when you started. Sorry, no refunds.

Give me a prompt as I approach each mid-path flight point, not even for very long necessarily, perhaps for 5 seconds before I get there, that asks me if I'd like to stop there instead. Because some people may hate this (not that they should, it would be a prompt that would appear, and then go away a few seconds later), I'd suggest that you be able to toggle it in the advanced interface options. Recommended cost: nothing extra. You've already paid to get there, and this mid-path flight master was going to take another chunk of your silver as you flew by... now he just doesn't get your money.

Cute idea, but most places I've worked the tapes get put in thick-walled metal boxes before leaving the facility and don't come out again until they're returned.

Now, you can probably design something to broadcast out of that metal box, but do you really want that much EM right next to all your backup tapes?

City of Aliens would give them a use for the spaceports.

However... I just don't see it, myself. With only 140,000 subscribers, and subscription down by 10% in the last quarter, would they really invest all that time and effort into another full expansion that's almost certainly doomed to failure?

I mean, I'm a faithful subscriber, and I love CoX. I got my 39-month vet rewards the other day. I just don't think another paid-for expansion would be a good business decision.

CoX is likely doomed to slowly dwindle away.

Okay, weird question, but it makes a big difference to my wife. Anyone know if this thing has a kickstand?

Sweet! Thanks for the info.
