    Always rude to everyone? I post once or twice a week, and nothing I'm aware of is rude to anyone or everyone. You must mistake me for someone else. Feel free to read through my post history. I might have been direct a long time ago when I was posting regulary, but never utterly disrespectful or rude.

    And for the record, I'm not in the slightest being rude, the amount of negatism and trolling on this forum against nVidia is simply appalling. And wether you like it or not, a lot of posts by saaya are negative towards something or the other. If I wanted to be rude, the post would have been a LOT different.

    Tim you seem to be an nvidia fan so whats wrong with ATI fans? I understand that it is annoying when other people are putting down fermi, a product from which you seem to have great expectations/hope. Anyway as a consumer, i would welcome any sort of competition from nvidia but perhaps due to my inexperience, i am somewhat disappointed since i was expecting more data about fermi.

    I prefer certain brands to others like any other sane person, but I do have a big problem with people shouting all sorts of abuse at nVidia and that amount adds up to an incredible amount from the ATi fans, which in my humble opinion just gets to the point where it's enough is enough. Yes, Fermi is late, really late, but at least it's coming, and seems to have good performance from reports so far. Everybody knows Fermi is late, but c'mon, some people are really beating up a dead horse.

    I was just as glad and had high hopes for ATi's current generation, just like I've got high hopes for Fermi. Nothing wrong with that.

    I wanted to see a lot more information too, but if any other launch is anything to go by, proper leaks will soon come, and I'm quite happy to check back in now and then to watch the prelaunch speculation. At the moment, I'm quite happy seeing Fermi running something substantial.

    Nvidia isn't getting flak from just ATI people, there's a pretty general consensus lately due to their marketing tactics, renaming, and fighting over PhysX, CUDA, etc. with others that has gone on for some time, and it's built up when their cards keep seemingly be delayed

    There's no need to take it personally at all and get caught up over it. Your best bet is just to sit back and relax and wait..

    You're probably right. I'm not here to offend anyone, or to think that I'm being rude, so apologies to anyone who did think my posts as being rude.

    they could have done a lot more to impress the audience if you ask me... but yeah, the demo showed that their drivers are doing pretty well i guess...
