Help me get Ket a Biostar TPower I45!

I think you missed the point...the manufacturers need to get their asses in gear.

Also, while I give total kudos to Ket for his time, knowledge and energy, we shouldn't be at the point where we are influencing someone with gifts and money to switch to some different board to make improvements etc.

These manufacturers make BIG bucks off all of us and they could easily hire the likes of Ket if they wanted to. There must be thousands and thousands of people in Taiwan with the aptitude to do the very same as he.

Also, where does it end? Would you be happy ponying up your $$$ only to see some other group pull him away a few weeks later with offers of a board or hardware he is particularly interested in or lusting after?

Like I said, sad, very sad....

I do not lust after anything, nor do I abandon what I start. For proof of that just look at how long I worked on a Xpertvision X1950Pro BIOS that actually made the card work properly, and not only that but the end result was a highly optimised finely tuned BIOS that made the Xpertvision X1950Pro perform up to 30% better with AA and AF enabled. Another example is the P5Q Series, I have not given up on that either.

Bottom line: whatever I start I see through to the end.

There may well be people in such places as Taiwan who possess the skills I do and better even, but at the end of the day how many of them do you see doing what I'm doing? I'd wager none.

But as Marcam said, back on topic folks
