    • E3 would be a good place to plug a new card, but only if the cards are available soon after, ie within a couple of weeks after.

      They'll have to get the cards out shortly after the announcement, so they are trailing the announcement.

            • You'll know when the print media gets the word... when a plethora of nVidiots start committing suicide online, ie it hasn't happened yet.

              Yes I know when it's suppose to happen, give it a little more time


              Just a thought: Anyone up for a kegger this weekend?

                        • A media contact of mine has apparently got wind of what's going on.

                          Poor gender deleted was stuttering all over the place and repeating: "they've GOT to be kidding, right? Right? 'cmon....TELL ME MORE!! p-p-p-please??" (while sounding like Roger Rabbit)

                          I usually hate NDA's at a time like this, but if you're even mildly into into torture keeping to them can be VERY entertaining
