ATI vs. NVIDIA: ATI Steals the Show

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the video-card-shootout dept.

(54)T-Dub writes "Apparently a group of MIT engineers made an OpenGL wrapper for the NVidia Demo of 'Dawn.' (a fairy with high sex appeal) Even though the wrapper adds more overhead the demo still runs faster on the 9800pro and creates higher quality images." Yet another reason it's good to have engineering students on your side.

  2. True Love: the story of Malda and Kathleen Fent by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Offtopic
    When Rob Malda was looking for a good wife, he figured out a way to tell if a prospective mate is a virgin or not. Whenever he saw a girl that looked all right he took her out for a ride on his moped. All of a sudden he would stop, unbutton his pants, and show her his tool. "What's that?" says he. "Why it's a pecker," the girl says. So then he would button up his pants. "You aren't what I'm looking for," says he, and back to town they'd go.

    He kept on like that for several years, but all the girls gave him the same answer. Finally he found a pretty little waitress with yellow hair that worked in a hotel. Kathleen Fent was her name. They went riding on his moped, and when he pulled out his cock she just kind of giggled. "Why that's a tee-hee!" says Kathleen. Right then and there Rob Malda know she was just what he wanted. So he and she got married and they were both mighty happy.

    About six months after the wedding, they got to talking about old times. "Honey," says Rob, "how did you come to call my tool a tee-hee, that first time we went riding?" Kathleen replied, "tee-hee is the right word for it and any other girl would tell you the same."

    Rob shot back, "Oh no, out where I was raised they call it a pecker." Kathleen just laughed. "Shucks Rob Malda," she said, "them corn-fed Michigan floozies ain't been around much. Why everyone knows that a pecker is a whole lot bigger than that!

    the quality of spelling and grammar on Slashdot of late has slipped from "surprisingly" to "shockingly" bad.

  7. Untill it supports Linux I could care less by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Unless it works in a REAL computing envoronment who the hell cares. Windows is only good for slowing down hardware. Oh and the Windows CD's make nice coasters... I have no intrest in seeing Gates contaminate and control the market. He has done more to damage the industry than he has to help it. His goal is to asyimilate and conquer and to control progression. Get some balls ATI and lets start seeing the kind of support that NVIDIA has shown!
