I love how the 2 billion loss has been brought up over and over again by our wonderful Nvidia zealot. What he always fails to mention is the fact that ATI still has more market share and higher stock value than Nvidia. Also fails to mention how Nvidia is notorious for posting false results about thier stock and products. I mean who wants shares in a company that is being run like AIG ?

Personally I find it hilarious when folks like doc get on an berate and belittle people because they purchase a card from the company he seems to be so threatened by. I run 2 systems both of which are identical except the video cards, one is the 295gtx the other the R4890. The only real word difference that I see while playing games is that the ATI chokes on huge blooms of red (big fps drops). The Nvidia chokes on just about every single game when the shadows are turned all the way up. otherwise they are pretty much the same both in FPS and heat generation, at least thats what the water block thermostat shows. Now I could call him a Nvidiot, but that would make me one also since i bought a nvidia card also.
