    Too much bullshit

    Publish "rumours", even if it comes from sources under NDA ("somewhere down the line"). It´s OK.

    Tell everyone that the info is more than rumours ("first real info", "beleive me I know" etc.). Still OK.

    But publish rumours that happen to be very close to the facts and close to official announcement - and you´re condemned. Regardless of whether you are under NDA or not.

    Ridiculous.

    Look to England for press ethics- bwahahahaha.

    I´m taking time-out here.

    You seem to really want to argue on this one. IXBT did not publish rumours they published documentation and images from the Matrox press pack that is under NDA. There is a huge difference. If this is bullshit to you then you had better take timeout from here becuase it ain't gonna go away just to make you happy.

      I think that was what he was saying Ant...I think most (pre parhelia) MURCers agree with you.
      Sit back and watch the circus...like you said "we are in for a bumpy ride"....well put your feet up and have a beer.

      Cheers
      we are with you on this ride

        Well, yeah. Half the time, Haig was the one giving you these hints. Also, BBz gave out the little they could over time, and I think you could perceive M as silently condoning it.
