I find that unbelievable. Seriously. Maybe you read the benchmarks backwards?

Only a Nvidiot would wait six extra months, them complain about a few more minutes. Don't be a Nvidiot.

Now look, I've got OCD and I'm impatient! <qubit stamps tiny foot>

Is there a chance we're wrong about the NDA time? Figure everyone would have their reviews posted the instant they were allowed.

I'm telling ya, it's gonna go up at the start of the next hour. I'm on BST as I'm in the UK and this Fudzilla article indicate 23:01 BST. It's now only 10-something BST.

If a mod or W1z could confirm this, it would really help with the anxiety.

Where's that bloody Prosac!!!

These benchmarks still doesn't change the fact NVIDIA does have issues with fermi. Can they get away with this for this round, go back to the drawing board and come out with something better? It's anybodies guess

As we have been saying since last May, Fermi GF100 is the wrong chip, made the wrong way, for the wrong reasons. Dear Leader has opened the proverbial can of Whoop-Ass on the competition, and on top of that criticized Intel's Larrabee for everything that ended up sinking Fermi GF100. Intel had the common sense to refocus Larrabee and take a PR hit rather than pouring tens of millions more dollars down the drain for no good reason. It doesn't look like Nvidia has the management skills to make that call. The company not only designed a 'Laughabee', it went against all sense and built that too.
