It really looks like things behind my decision needs a bit more clarification.
But at first two replies for previous posts: (if you are sensitive, it is propably best for you to skip these. Language, if anything, can be inpropriet.)

AXED more like. Inventors of the BS gpu. Only good for paper launches. Straight down the toilet. Nice to see someones busy there!
At least there's one good thing out of the so called delay. Its never out of date always keeping up with dx development.
After this latest update on their tech. May I suggest we refrain from further speculation on their efforts till we se something concrete!
At the moment they should get work as ranchers.
They'd get more money for the amount of manure they keep spreading around.
I really doubt that ÃœberLord bothers even to read this, but where the hell you have you been?? I thought that at least all the regulars saw that "Few Pictures..." thread, perhaps few Guests too. I think you are so called whiners that wouldn't be happy even if they would deliver the moon from the sky. (hey, you can always say that they didn't do it. they just delivered it. it's not theirs.)
Sorry you're sensitive to the criticism of a Company that promises a great deal but delivered more BS than sysmark2002. This was not meant to piss you off but seeing as you wish to chastise my contribution however small I'll reply to your comments. That's if you indeed care to read post here after this!
I visit Beyond3D most days only choosing to reply to threads that are of interest to me. Having joined beyond3d's forums in its current and previous formats I value most people's comment on the current state of 3d tehnology advancements.
Whether or not I agree totally with these views is a mute point but I do not consider speculation that continues in BITBOYS case beyond the pale of derision. Each year something crawls out of the wood-work. Be it an update to latest roadmap or comments about the tech of current players, some INTERVIEWS even date back some 3+ years.
Displaying wafers and samples of actual products that have never been seen in public. Yes I did see the mock-ups of AXE but like everyone who have waited for BITBOYS to release actual products have grown ever more dismissive of their efforts.
The latest announcement clearly demonstrates how futile this wait has been. Many things have changed in the gaming market since BITBOYS orignally made known their intentions. 3DFX demise, T&L features now commonplace. MS even releasing a console in this time frame and are about to release DX9, BITBOYS holy grail started around DX6 1998 to be exact
http://firingsquad.gamers.com/features/siggraph99/default.asp In this time nothing concrete from BITBOYS but more excuses.
They condemn themselves to the heights of the greatest vaporware company never to release a product in recent history not me. My comments came out of continued fustration with PITBOYS, not anyone here.
Whiners/whingers aside, the money these parts now fetch entitles one to be skeptical of a companies ability to support future users having sold them said product. Having problems treading over the first step in coming to market does not bode well if faced with a genuine fault!
I hope you do not carry out your intention to leave. Your insight and comments have always been intuitive and I for one will miss your comments, but be real. This company has taken many of us for a ride too long and now is the time to get off.
Chill out dude.
