Well, personally i would wait, we all have seen how much technology has moved on since Oleg first mentioned that he expected SOW to be released in Q4 2007, If we had all purchased new PC's then we would be well out of sync. I cannot for the life of me see that this game will be released this year, some say i am pessimistic i think i am simply 'realistic'. We will certainly have a new generation of CPU's and GPU's by this time next year and i would wager that would be an approximate time for an SOW release, or though i would be very very happy to be wrong.
