I just found a picture in a Norwegian PC magasine. This is a picture of wath they call the next generation Matrox card for gamers... I have scanned it, and saved a copy on one of the Internett pages I work with. Here is the link

[GDI]Raptor: Why do you lie? Do you just want visitors for your web pages?

Yes, I made the picture for the 1st of April. My question is: If you scanned the thing from a magazine, how come you ended up with exactly the same dimensions (156x109 pixels), the same colordepth (256 colors), the same file format (GIF) and even the same file name (Mill_G800_64mb.gif) as my original picture?

The answer is simple. Obliviously you did not scan it, but saved the file to your hard drive directly from the web. So why do you claim that you saw it in a magazine

az, you forget mention suspected retail price for that...

how much it will cost?

[ALBPM]

This calls for a fake price too....

$19.99 Retail
$10.99 OEM

Hmmmmmm .....
1. It is in a magasine
2. I was suposed to scan the picture, but it wasent necesary because I already had your copy on my hardrive. (Appology for that error)
3. That is NOT my private Web-page, and visitor numbers doesn't matter.....

OK everyone lets give Tempest his credit for the picture, because thats wath he want!!!!!!

[GDI]Raptor: Whatever... I don't really care, I just think it'd be damn funny if someone really took these things for real and were stupid enough to print them without first doing a brief search on this forum.

[ALBPM]

Some fool will do just that.....LOL

Nice job creating the Box Tempest!!!!!

"Matrox Skinning" must be the politically correct description of "Render Nude"
