I love the Akira, I run her as a torpedo boat and do fairly well with her. I am hoping with this new update to her they finally put all her consoles together as a set.

The rom ship is tempting me a little as well since i have one of her other forms... least i think i do.

Still Its good to see the Akira come back for another round.

What a walk down memory lane. I despised DOS, absolutely hated Windows 3.1 OMG all those floppies to load an OS. Skipped Windows 95 and Windows 98 for Apple based products and returned to support the Roll Out of Windows 2000 and that dreadful Windows ME launch (which by the way worked wonderfully for me). From then on it was Windows through the years. Finally I can't wait for Windows 10 (even though I adore Windows 8.1 - I can always roll back :) )

She is a beauty. The new skin might tempt me back into the pure canon design.

haha ah windows 3.1 it was a breath of fresh air when it came out, I also remember using a boot disk to free up enough memory to play Warcraft: Orcs and Humans among some others ;)

On the eve of what is being known as the release Microsoft's "final" version of its flagship operating system, I thought i'd share an article that spans the decades of its evolution.

While many folks are Mac users, others Linux gurus, I myself grew up with MS-DOS 5 and Windows 3.1. I ran all my games by starting my computer with a floppy disk to free up memory (Star Trek TNG: A Final Unity, anyone?) :laugh:

I lived through the wobbly-but-successful release of Windows 95, and then on to its "face-lifted" successor Win-98. Like many, I remember several years later wanting to take a shotgun my Pentium III system after loading Windows ME.

Through every iteration, whether good or bad, I'm always grateful for this operating system, for the Windows legacy has always powered many a fond gaming memory, online experience, and sparked my imagination alongside my hobbies since the early 90's.

So here's to #10, and kudos to MS for keeping the tradition alive with the interface enjoyed by many for almost 30 years.

Cheers, and happy upgrading. :)

She's always been my favourite class of ship since her inception. I'm incredibly pleased that they didn't go the Fisher-Price route with her and that they have the new, upgraded standard Akira skin out that they announced, today.

KAAAAAAAAAAAHN-gratulations!!

Congratulations! I´m looking forward to work with you!

It should be noted that the new promotions will be considered 'Members' for this event as they have not been put through orientation or carried out any FC duties.

CongoRats!


P.S. This would be a good time somewhere on the site to list all the FC's and Admirals so people know all choices to vote for in the MVP contest.

This looks amazing. If I can find a way I WILL invest.

Qapla'!

I truly am honored to be given this opportunity. This fleet stands apart from others and is much more like a close family run business that likes to have fun while serving others. I stake my honor to it, or Gre'thor await me. Congratulations are in order to all my fellow co-captains!

P.S. I accept the challenge, SaintPlazma.


May glory, honor, and victory find you. Qapla'!

Congrats, let the test of the 30 pain sticks begin!

Definitely. I remember getting a collectors card with a VHS (Jesus I'm old) with it on and falling in love with it. Was gutted when Star Trek Armada came out and it was a tiny pussy ship

I'm glad someone finally agrees! Nobody in Fleet chat thought so last night.

I agree, that's an awesome list of individuals! Congrats everyone. Enjoy the ride.

There is a download if you are lucky in finding thats called Star Trek Bridge Commander Maximum Warp Edition that would have several things in one which does include the latest Kobayashi Maru Mod and others things.

I have STBC on my Windows 8 and its works well, just has moments of it crashes from time to time due to something (not sure what it might be) but it others works well. and you have three different mods in which you can access if you do get it.

Honest im wondering on how much these guys are in getting this project off the ground.

Congratulations everyone!

congrats to you all. hip hip hooray!!!
