    Yeah...nVidia gave a few reviewers a "This is not a real card from us but we'll call it the Ultra Extreme and some of our partners may be clocking the cards this high so please benchmark this $599 or so we guess card against ATI's $499 XT PE so we don't get our mind-share kicked too hard" card.

    One thing that I still don't understand is if ATI ditched their regular XT and the PE is all that will be available why then did they even bother giving it the PE name? Why not just increase the frequency and leave it at plain XT?

    The NV40 is not supposed to ship yet. NVidia has not reached their announced date, so I don't really see the point of "bashing" the lack of supply yet.

    BTW, 45 days is "almost" two months? Seems like 1.5 months to me. Glass is half empty for you right?

    Non-sequitur. You really need to take some smart drugs.

    Demo...I really think you need to either take a chill pill or just take a break for a few weeks.... There really is no need for the personal abuse..... You spend far too much time here argueing your point of view - not that that's wrong, mind you - but beating your head against a wall (and that's the way it appears) can not be healthy. Your attitude (in terms of dealing with others) has, over the last 3-4 months, gone steadily downhill.
