Here is what I feel after event:

I want to thank Simon from AMD for making this all possible for me and Sampsa. I would like to thank Sami (Macci) and Pete for their great help and experience.
Charles- This was nice event and thank you for making it real. I'll contact you later with some other stuff.

It was nice to meet some old friends and see some new guys too. I'm sorry, that we all were so busy in AMD tent all the time. It would have been nice to chat more with you guys. Too bad I missed some guys totally in the hurry.

Francois- It was nice to talk with you, even you thought that I was your enemy or something :ROTF: It was nice to watch your benching there.

OPPAINTER- You were a nice and crazy + drunk at the same time. It was nice to take some beer with you.

Movieman- I heard when you song karaoke.. it wasn't THAT bad :D

Liquid Helium- You are one bad ass super cold stuff.. I hope we will meet again :up:

P.S After benching at -240c (32K), nothing is the same anymore! It's like driving a Ferrari and then you find your Volkswagen from garage :eek:

Tell that to Charles, I still don't think he beleives I sang!:rofl:
A pleasure to meet you also.
What I took away from this party were that there were so many nice people.
It was putting a face to the names that I've seen here for 3 years.
Then getting to see you talented people do your magic with these systems was a true experience to this air cooled guy.
You guys put on one hell of a show!:clap:

looking for these nice ppl!

okey.. it started off in the beginning of the party..
I think they were the media who arrived fairly early at the event.
It's a shame that now I'm overwhelmed by loads of cards, and I seriously have no idea how to find out their names and say thanks.
They stood out for me when someone made rude comments, and after that they have been kept eyes on me all the time< well, everyone was just really nice to me.. so I am SUPER grateful about it!!>

anyway... if anyone who knows them , plz pass my words to them :-) thanks~^_^

I talked with the guyn with the black T shirt with the blown up PC on it..
Decent guy but I forget his name..
Now what do you mean someone made rude comments to you?
If we'd known we'd have taken them outside and "strung them up"..:up:
Besides, it boggles my mind as to what or why anyone would say anything rude to you.
You were the perfect hostess and charming..
Not to mention drop dead gorgeous.. Be still my aging heart!:D

It was great, I never really knew how good the quality was of the case, never knew you guys actually made the case itself. It was nice talking to the guy from EU, but I wish you guys were there.:shrug::(

It's not so much that I liked the Commodore shirt better than the others (though, it is cool), it's more that I would probably be strung up for wearing a Koolance or Thermaltake shirt... something about it being some form of heresy :rolleyes:;)

Good, because if it's the same guy I'm thinking of we'd have needed a ships hawser to string him up. He must've been all of 400lbs..:rofl:
All in all it was a day that I won't forget.
Good people, good friends and for the most part no fanboi issues.
That was good to see.
The Intel guys in the tent cheering on the AMD guys and vice versa.
That is how it should be, friends first, competition second.

Couldn't agree any more. I was speachless and :slobber: all day long =)

Was really nice to meet Jasmine, SF3D, Opp, Simon, Petra and Movieman in person. Too bad we didn't manage to party after the XS party. Would have been nice to talk to Team Finland a little longer without having to worry about benching. Looking forward to the next XS party. Shouldn't take long :D

Jasmine, I talked to you a few times at the party. You were a wonderful generous host and it was a pleasure to meet you. I was the one who offered a very fine shot of top tequilia from my cooler. You were so cool about saying no, even tho I really thought you needed it. A fine human being you are. If you were dissed by anyone, it wasn't deserved.

Keep up the happy work and what these guys do is world breaking in our small world, PC's will only get faster with their help. Fugger is a straight shooter and worth hanging with. Be yourself, stay sweet and I have to mention it........ Stay beautiful in mind and body.

I have 2 updates:
1) My colleague translated the article, I wrote in a really bad condition in the middle of the night: http://www.pcgameshardware.com/aid,6...liquid_helium/

2) I uploaded a couple of pictures to our forum:

Took me forever, so there are no descriptions yet, my apologies for that.

James
Phil aka Lokie

Vern aka Twizted

BTW, I'll pass the word. Hope to see you all next year if not sooner.

You are most welcome Jasmine. You know it was funny to watch 4 different guys talk to you while you were eating and not one of them offered to get you a drink? Those were awesome tamales.

I know, I need to post up my pics as well. When I do, I will have more comments. :up:

Sorry for the fan boys, but as you can see, we are not beating each other on the head or anything like this :)
The Green Giant and the blue Caveman are following the Olympics spirit, we are competing, but with the right spirit.

I invite all the fan boys from both camps to understand this and smooth out a little bit the language between the 2 camps ... The tech web sites could be so much more pleasant without the hate infused by some individuals, follow our example, use your differences to make your spirit richer!

Dawrn ... Ian and I are good looking .... lol!

I was 15.. manning Bowl held 20,000 plus another 10,000 on the field.
The Stones played nonstop for 4 hours then went to leave.
The kids didn't want them too.
The band had a 1964 Caddy Limo waiting right behind the stage to get them out of there.
Now remember, the cops had no history of concerts and what to expect.
App 100 kids got on the car and we're rocking it back and forth off of it's wheels.
That Caddy had to weigh 7000lbs..
Cops threw teargass, I went over the side of the bowl and dropped maybe 12-14 ft to a cinder running track and got the hell out of there..
