    haha, that gives me a great idea for another one that would just be hillarious

    if they took a competitors video card out to a field, got the bat, and started going all out on it like in office space :D

    Perhaps this explains the huge number of Linux and Sun machines they have... they aren't for chip simulation but for movie post-production.

    Na, don't you see it? It's not actual film stock, but rendered in real-time on NV30. ;)

    I really hope the NV30 will render images closer to movie quality than those clips are close to movie quality in terms of content.

    I just hope that somewhere down the line, they will do something with sock puppets. That would best round the "series" :)

    Well, there were 4 empty slots initially, and they are all filled, so I think they are over. Maybe the informative videos are next.

    I've been thinking "employee effort" as someone has said since the second one was so similar to the first (except that it was actually funny :p ), and I think they would have been well served to label the series as such clearly from the beginning. Not sure why they didn't, would only have helped perception IMO.

    The next video (one in the intranet) will probably be serious. All 4 videos on that page are 'fun' but in the intranet, the one on the the engine room seemed serious. Perhaps the next video will show us what NV30 can do and will be uploaded the same time as it's announcement
