Well, there ya go. :smile:
Don't know if this video has been posted yet:

I have seen several Rocket Slegde videos, but this one contains a bit more info than the other I have seen, regarding DX11(Tessalation) and PhysX in the Rocket Slegde demo.
Sorry if it is a repost.

Never heard of 3.2. I did read of 3.1 billion several times.
I don't think I ever saw that before, so thanks I guess
Most of the previous "sources" always mentioned 3.1.Btw, "someone" is adamant in discrediting that Zed_X guy...
Btw, "someone" is adamant in discrediting that Zed_X guy...
That's me too?
It's just not news, shouting old "info" doesn't make it new info..
Where'd he go BTW? He was supposed to give me an attributed quote from NVIDIA saying they would ship in '09.

Maybe it's one of the GTC articles.

Neliz, unnamed NVIDIA officials is not really attributed ... he promised me a name
Although it's really not important any more, I was just wondering at the time if the whole 2009 shipping thing was shilling or not ... if they had tied the name of an actual employee to the 2009 shipping date I would have given it some credence, but in retrospect it probably was shilling though.

Mark could probably give you the name off the record, but seeing as how all the reports start with "unnamed nvidia execs.." it was pure damage control of what everyone knew would be a failure.
It doesn't surprise me in the least that they still expected in October 09' to make a late Q4 release. After that the projected launch date was consistantly slipping by one or two weeks at a time until they finally realized that even January would had been too damn optimistic.
IF matters were out of their direct control ie if they were truly sitting on the trigger waiting for 40G yields to go from abysmal to tolerable, then they don't really need to excuse themselves for giving a wrong projection. In any other case they'll of course tell you that 60 days are peanuts (I wonder what's with that 60 fetish anyway; it's by 9 digits too short for my kinky self ahem) or some other weird excuse, sweep it under the carpet and the sun will shine again.

their putative 2009 launch date... or you must know that is what he meant, and are making the counter claim that they did not know that they wouldn't be able to deliver. That seems unlikely, that they had no idea at all how far behind they were. Maybe they hoped to squeeze in some cards before the new year, though.

At 2:30 in that video, why does the sled fly off without the jet attached exactly the same way it did with the jet?
their pre-2010 launch.
