I'm not sure about what to think about these changes yet, however I do have a suggestion which may or may not have been suggested many times:

-Some kind of chat, market, skill changing, map client. Make it a text-based terminal if you have to, but something to help the eve junkies log into their world remotely to some degree. (by remotely, I mean away from our home 'Control Center')

My main beef here is with this l337 eve community who troll every CCP update with "Fail" as if this were a bloody YouTube video. It seems that most of the people who threatened to quit playing EVE when they said they were going to in a juvenile attempt to get CCP to change their mind (as if anyone cares), are right back here at the next update pitching the same fit every subsequent update later.
EVE is the only mmo I'd ever seriously consider playing because no other mmo even grazes the sheer amount of complexity and depth that EVE has. On top of that, EVE is the ultimate dynamic environment. CCP has always been adding, removing and modifying mass amounts of critical content to the game to even the fields, provide more stimulation and even dimentions to the game. Every change that has come along has been met with SO much opposition in these forums and in-game discussions, but yet for the most part, EVE continues to maintain a huge group of long-time loyal subscribers who continue playing it despite their pre-pubescent ways of showing disapproval.
IMHO, I see ccp as artists who don't compromise a 'good-idea' with what the consumer says he wants. They make their game exactly the way they see it in their minds, and the consumers flock to it because it surpasses their original expectations.
So even though I may never get the dual-client thing down, and I may need to spend $20 on a new video card for my old computer on ebay, I will be enjoying the update like most of you.

So! How am I supposed to run 5 clients from my old crap rig eh? x300 ati card and 1.5 gigs of ram and a 2.8 gig processor. Yes I do run 5 clients at the same time. Not fun when you get disconnected or crash by any means. Not to mention I have to start all the clients before actaully logging in each charecter or again I crash. So this beeing the case how much can I actaully strip eve down graphically? No I am not to well concerned with eye candy. I play games that are well past there age. Some of them go back 10 or even 15 years. Also how is this going to effect me running say just 1 client during large scale battles? If I cant run at least 4 clients at the same time then there goes a large source of my income which really kills my desire to even play. Most of the peple I am sure you read use multible accounts. Are we going to get alot of options to strip downt he graphics and i dont mean just hitting check marks. I used to play half life mods where I woudl run in 400x300 ona pentium 2 and from the games console I could tone down the texturing size to practailly nothing and I did to turning preety much all graphical features off. THing is I could still kill you just as easily even though my crosshair would take up half the screen LOL.

Basiclly I want to have as many options as absolutely possible to save on graphics cpu and any other system resource that I possibly can.

Also if you really consider most of the people complaining about the graphics switch are the 1's runnign multible clients such as myself

I plan to upgrade after Windows 7 is released. For now I have WinXP with a SM v2.0b card: ATI Radeon X800 Pro 256mb RAM. This card is very sufficient to run my computer. Of course I can always temporarily cancel my game subscription of CCP cannot wait for Win 7 to release.
