I think NVIDIA was so power hungry to release a card that would have such extremely high core/clock speeds but without factoring in the technology aspects that it takes to get there. For instance the chip runs very hot even at their transistion to the 0.13nm manufacturing process and so the card is very unstable. The dust buster they used to cool the chip in the first place was a bit over overkill but I guess NVIDIA hadn't planned for the chip to run at such a high voltage.
In my closing statements I will say that NVIDIA really needed to come up with something that could compete with a Radeon 9700 Pro but obviously they would have to release it in order to compete and that doesn't look like it's going to happen. I think ATI would be pleased about this because not so far in the distant future the R350 core will emerge and ATI has pleased many in the past.
We will have to wait and see...
I don't really like expansions on games like Warcraft 3 because they are hard enough and have enough levels as is and an expansion would just kill the game like we have seen with many others out there. However Brood Wars expansion was great, it wasn't excellent and I would only use it online for the extra men you get like valkiri and medics. But as far as single player campaigns and extra levels that it brings, it's just not worth it!
Yessir I want Starcraft 2! Just think aboout it! 3D all terrain and characters, gonna rock ass but I think Vivaldi or whatever will stop production of Starcraft 2 because of it's non expectant sales that will probably plumet with Blizzard's stock market and their 1st quarter earnings.
I don't understand this phenomenon. Are human beings responsible for this or are they acts of animals or extra terestrial's. Serious replies Only!
I would really like to get a hold of that CD...

If someone could get a hold of that CD and upload those images to a site that would be awesome. I am really interested in this and would like to see these SOHO images and do a bit of my own investigation on them.

I just hope the RIAA doesn't come crashing down on this.
Just a matter of time until all ISP's start imposing monthly bandwidth limits. Something needs to be done to stop this.

I'm glad Slashdot did a follow up on this issue as it is the MAIN news topic worldwide today.
My condolences go out to the victim's families.
It's all Suddam Husein's fault. *shrugs*
I don't think many people will know what this is but I know I will.
I'm watching it on 27" normal TV. Any of you out there got Plasma's and or HD TV's? How is it?
