    @Gurm: You could be missing out on a golden opportunity here! What's more important, being realistic about bitboys being a bunch of losers or getting in on some of that sweet, sweet payola!
    WHAT sweet payola? As far as I can tell, they squander their venture capital on LAN parties, Red Bull, and booze. Maybe women as well, but these are SERIOUS geeks we're talking about.

    Every year or so they show off a cool prototype board, nobody ever buys one.

    Don't get me wrong, _I_ would love that life - live off of venture capital, mock up kickass toys, never actually have to produce results...

    I would still get screwed

      Rumour has it that nVidia shills get 30" Dell LCD panels.

      Bitboys shills have to work that much harder, and we should demand even better incentives!

        YOU ARE ALL CONFUSED. BitBoys has many great and exciting products which have been bought by... investors... who... invested. Yes! Indeed! Many great and exciting investments have been made, products shown at industry-leading shows such as "Finland Expo 2005", "Sweden Expo 2005", "ScandinaviaFest 2005", and "Toni Liirtanen's Boat and Fishing Show 2005, Winter Edition"!

        Be excited, because soon... SOON... VERY VERY SOON YOU WILL SEE THESE PRODUCTS!

                SO THAT'S WHAT IT WAS!!!!!

                Bitboys and all their remarkable benchmarks and press releases about how fast their chips were, was all for mobile phones, at resolutions no greater than 120x75 lol

                Interesting!

                  does it really matter?
