  • Flames of the G400 or..........

    Well, you've heard of famous Bloopers of all types. Now we have a collection from the past few months of the "Matrox Users Forums Famous Bloopers and Quotes"

    mragsdale and I have collected these to preserve them for posterity or whatever. Anyway it's a good way to pass the time while we wait for our new cards. Maybe you have a few in here. (we only collected them we do not in any way endorse the following) and that's our disclaimer....Heheheh
    --------------------------------------------------


    Been trying to find a CD-cover on my messy desk for the past 10 minutes, while it was on my chair... hmmmm....

    I didn't realize I was giving these knuckleheads (bless their hearts ) a chance at an easy dogpile.

    I turn all Power Management off, cause it's just a PITA. When you walk away from your computer just turn the monitor off.. that's my power management.

    Last year, my age and the year of my birth (the two-digit form) had the same numbers

    I feel like such an old fart

    Being a facedancer I have no specific profile.

    i'm not perky, but i'd like to be...

    I'd be grateful for any confirmation of the order situation, as it would play havoc with my company's accounting (I'm an indie consultant)!

    You know whats werid about this whole thing is that 9/9/99 is one of Y2K dates that you dont hear about often. the number 999 is a termanting code for certain programs from what I understand. What i don't understand is why would the G400, would be shipping late

    You shouldn't even be using 5.13 because of the problems people are having with it and it's not WHQL certified and you don't need it because you have a V2 card.

    Does the RR-G for G400 have a TV-In or do I need to buy another add-on card?

    I'm not taking it out on you guys. Matrox reads these posts. They list this website on the official website. Maybe someone who works for Matrox will see my pain. Where did you "Forum" guys come in?!?! Who are you "guys" anyways!?!?! I don't give a rats ass about you guys I just want to say to the millions of people on the internet that Matrox rips!!!

    Boot.

    Boot?

    i say boot too.

    Heheh - I deal with IBM daily...
    The fact that Karl works there explains a few things to me

    Guys guys guys,
    In the words of my girlfriend--"Too damn premature!!!"

    Ya,Ok, but you never have to worry about us being late.....LOL

    Unscrupulous companies will gladly take your money now for products way down the pike.

    Have you tried sprinkling the ashes of a sacraficial TnT around your computer, and doing a ritual dance?

    I want my MAX, I want my MAX, I want my MAX
    I want my MAX, I want my MAX, I want my MAX
    I want my MAX, I want my MAX, I want my MAX
    I want my MAX, I want my MAX, I want my MAX
    I want my MAX, I want my MAX, I want my MAX
    I want my MAX, I want my MAX, I want my MAX
    I want my MAX, I want my MAX, I want my MAX
    I want my MAX, I want my MAX, I want my MAX

    i wANT my 5th grade toy now!
    i want it MAXimally. dun toyo withme..

    i am a jerk

    Anyone know where I can get some chickens real cheap...Heheh

    G400 MAX delayed to 9/9 for retailers?Is that TRUE???I hear a TNT 2 Ultra calling...

    cpu p2 350 heatsink w/fan and sink compound--->(that would be caulk, right?)

    DJROBERTS IS FULL OF SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    There can be just ONE final ICD, otherwise it's not a/the final one. And it still is just an ICD for games, not a full one.

    depends on what the meaning of the word is is

    It doesn't matter as the world is going to end on July 4th according to Nostradamus.

    Aah, shucks! And I just paid back my loans... nuts!

    And on September 13th the moon is going to blow out of Earths orbit, to fly around the galaxy.

    General Strike?! Who the hell is General Strike?!

    If some of you think the drivers are of such poor quality then why don't you quit whining and write your own. The information is all out there and I believe you can even get the MS Device Driver Kit for free from their webpage now.

    I counted 11 advertising banners on his frontpage the other day, thats just taking the piss.

    Let me guess:
    None of the 11 ads were showing Matrox ... right ?
    And, yes ... get your filthy mouth cleaned for using such a rude vocabulary

    Kruzin made me go there, it's his favourite site.

    Is this the biggest waste of time in the modern world to be slamming Tomshardware?

    I hearty F**K YOU to Matrox for this one, all over a 10-cent connector

    I wonder if this issue is what caused the clipping I noticed on the purple effect that was surrounding the target in Q3 posted on this board? If so, I guess it would be fixed with a simple driver update to enable the 32bit Z Buffer.

    Clipping? Purple effect? That was the residue of a shot from the rail gun, I don't think id would like you calling their effects a driver problem

    You are correct Kruzin, it's Z position is behind that large block, there is no clipping. In fact, it does it rather well.

    High in the lower G400s, 20% chance of ICD here. eheh

    Beautiful, just beautiful, brings a tear to my eyes, I haven't been on for a while and everyone is still being civilised, it's just damn wonderful!!

    Hey, this is cool, sure beats all the negative waves that were rampant this past week. Oh YUK !! Phil, what IS that STUFF on your hands??? Never mind, we really don't want to know.

    Yes I have heard of Expendable, I have the demo. What about it?

    Matrox Geomatry Addon?

    Yippee! Guess what the UPS guy just dropped off =)

    I've just had a possible brain-wave... This shouldn't break anything, but I cannot guarantee it. Probably wont work either, but it's worth a shot.

    Hmm.. Getting confused..
    Memory linked to resources, resources linked to slot IRQs, memory should be used to store apps with their working data - virtual memory suddenly comes..
    Hmm.. How are they related?

    I am slowly perfecting that dual agp slot design on paper.. hoping to test it out soon.. how are you coming with your end of the secret project. Oh and the special freezer refit works pretty good too.

    BTW Joel you weren't that sarcastic a few months ago, too much of Kruzin around maybe...
    Just my opinion

    No, it comes from having to deal with ppl like djroberts all the time.

    I think I read some where that the TNT2 is realy a piece of lunch meat with foil crimped on one side. Really!

    Ya, I read that somewhere too, Pimento Loaf(Yuk) wasn't that what they said, somewhere.

    Now can we all please get along before I get my size 11 Doc Martens out again and start pushing my weight around

    You know I was just playing Quake 2 at 1600x1200 with 38fps on the G400 and thinking to myself, this is hideously bad.

    It's a good thing you guys can't hear me sing...LOL

    Some G400s are only AGP 2X??

    I think I might have gotten one of those shady OEM/boxed deals

    Hey Orangejuice,
    No I'm Kruzin, agent, Maggi, SteveC and Joel and on and on.

    Say again, where did you get that fine looking tablecloth, it's a must-have item for all Matroxaholics...

    Good job Pauly... Sure hope with that helicopter on your card, that you screwed down your PC really good on your desk!!

    ....Good luck with that "disco" fan heheh

    ok its startin to happen. my nice new 300.00 cue stick camein.

    Yes, I am serious and don't call me Shirley

    Damn LAMFDTK, you swiped my trout

    We'll have beer,beer and more beer. For the vegetarians we can get even more beer

    BTW, Jorden, did I ever mention that my ambition is to be Dutch? Yeah, I'm still looking for a leg up but it's true, really!

    And we on the MATROX USER forums care because why....?

    Don't you find this ironic, that we Canadians get shafted by a company located in our counrty?

    I'm still looking for the *un*important part of your life that you get to keep...

    Those 27 year-old mountains must be a little hard to find - or are you a volcanic biker? Hehehehe

    Does the Matrox Store offer a senior discount????

    Darn, where's my reading glasses!!!

    You shouldn't have left them on your messy desk.

    Thanks Hunsow, I found em.

    Some rose petals around our posts would be nice

    50 going on 25 and getting older every minute waiting for my new Max.

    Damn, it will be a re-born for me...!!! Like a dream with a beautiful MAX!

    Just started playing with it when I was informed the it was my turn to cook! What bull***t!

    thats an idea i think i will have 2 oe 3 and a few shots oh well im going to get plastard cuase im bored too

    **Kruzin cautiously passes Joel an asbestos suit, then runs for cover**

    My computer (the one I love, a PII-400) is sleeping for 2 months

    Whew...just stuck my head up out my cubicle and a Stinger missile flew right by.

    kosh is the one that said to roll your own drivers

    I don't get a hard... Oh now I get it.

    When you guys start posting with emotions, what's that from? Sheer stupidity or lack of sex?


    As we quickly don our asbestos suits and duck under our desks, we hope you've enjoyed this.

              Excellent guys, keep up the good work. Even after you get your god-forsaken G400, you WILL keep this up, WON'T YOU? Good.

                I read them again and I'm laughing through tears now.
                Can you just ignore lines like "I don't get a hard... Oh now I get it." and "I've just had a possible brain-wave... This shouldn't break anything, but I cannot guarantee it. Probably wont work either, but it's worth a shot."?

                Wonderfull, dagnabbit!

                    If you don't want to be an induhvidual, try these helpful suggestions

                    If you're bidding on a job for UPS, don't send your bid by FedEx.

                    If your computer says, "Printer out of Paper," this problem cannot be resolved by continuously clicking the "OK" button.

                    If you want your refrigerator's ice maker to work, you need to hook it to a water source. Air doesn't make good ice unless it is mixed with water.

                    No matter how much data you add to your laptop, it will not get heavier.

                    A bad place to store your emergency backup diskette is on the underside of your desk drawer, secured by a large magnet.

                    It's okay to use the Poloroid Land Camera on a boat.

                    When the PC says, "Insert diskette #2," don't do it immediately. Remove disk #1 first, even if you're sure you can make them both fit in there.

                    When your PC says "You have mail," don't go to the company mail room and look for a package.

                    The French version of Netscape Navigator doesn't translate English language web pages into French.

                    If you're in the armed services, and it's April 1st, and you get an e-mail message to call Colonel Sanders for new orders, don't.

                    If you go to the computer store to buy a mousepad, you don't have to specify whether it's for a Windows or a Macintosh.

                          Sierra you say that like it's a bad thing.
