        Utrecht? That's only a half hours drive from home! Do I need an invitation or can anyone just drop in?

          One hour driving from where i'm standing

          I'm a reseller (although not a official Matrox Dealer), maybe they let me in
          .. i've sold a G550 last week, that most be worth something

            I think this would be a reseller/dealer only thing... We probably received an invitation because have placed direct dealer orders from Matrox Europe from time to time.

              Wonder where the equivalent UK one is. As a potential large purchaser (and free advertiser - the G400s we got attracted all our neighbours in like flies to ...). Id love to see this in action.

                    They run Parhelia already. That's why dates fly by. But not the days. Is that a sign?
                    I am watching the TV and it's worthless.
                    If I switch it on it is even worse.

                            I'm gonna go, im no reseller/dealer, but I've never had a non-matrox card, even bought an M3D to assist my mystique instead of a voodoo, so if they want me to buy a Parhelia they'd better let me in.

                            Who's comming with me? we only need to find out if it's wednesday or thursday.

                              Rats, if I didn't have to be at work, I'd probabely also go there. Couldn't we send a delegation, all with Murcer T-shirts (perhaps if you guys dressed up as ants, you might get in more easily ) ?

                              And if you do, please take a camera, and make pictures of
                              a. the security as they throw you out
                              b. the security as you sneak past them in coming in
                              c. the strip-search for that missing Parhelia board (oops, sorry, must have mistaken you for lizzie - hope she isn't mad at me... )
                              d. the bootbabes !
                              e. euhm, some demoshots ?

                              Oh, by the way, could this mean the board is launched in Europe first ?!
