New Graphics Company, With Working Cards

Posted by timothy on from the clever-of-them-to-have-actual-cards dept.

gladbach writes "Toms Hardware has in their hands an actual working card, unlike other vaporware cardmakers *cough* bitboys *cough*... To quote Toms: 'A new player dares enters the graphics card market that ATi and Nvidia have dominated for so long. XGI (eXtreme Graphics Innovation), based in Taiwan of course, comes at the market leaders with a line of cards for a whole lot less money. We look at XGI's product range, and offer results of a beta model from XGIs top model Volari Duo V8 Ultra.'"

    I've been getting BSA ads. In fact, I get e-mails from my Monster.com job search agent (heh heh heh, anyone wanna offer a geek a telecommuting job? ;) with banner ads, and as often as not, they advertise the BSA. Makes me that much more excited about all of the signs that are pointing to near-critical-mass adoption of open-source software by corporations and governments.

  2. Games as entertainment brings teenagers. by Futurepower(R) · · Score: 1, Offtopic


    The problem is that the emphasis on games as entertainment, as opposed to games as technology, brings lots of teenagers to Slashdot. It's their chance to hassle adults without paying a price.

    Some of those teenagers get moderation points and they moderate comments they don't understand, and flood Slashdot with garbage.

      I'd like to think of myself as an intelligent teenager. After all, one more year to go until you can't even call me that anymore.

      Besides, back when you were a teenager, you were the smartest and you were a geek, right?

      Well its just another generation coming into the ranks.
