Can i have my check back that i sent to you for $300,000? And im so happy your staying!

Dang now i can't own TPU :(

Also i do understand why you didn't have the 10.3, you would have to retest every single card for every single game test, i don't think people realize that you would have to update like 20+ cards, and that would take for ever!
YOU KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK I DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW YOU GET IT ALL DONE!!!!:rockout::rockout::rockout::rockout::rockout:
