Tell them that multithreading will be a big thing too !

I heard time travel can solve a lot of problems. Just go back and tell Jon Mavor about the bug before he could write it.

Sorry, 64 bits wont make the slowdowns magically go away even if we had the source and all the licenses to build it. It's a simple, mundane bug in the engine.

But here is a sure fire solution to fix it: Play versus people, not against AIs.

Unless you go to GPG, steal the code and kill everybody to cover your tracks, no.
