Goodness...did I touch a nerve or something? 3 posts to reply to my one?
Bit eogtistical aren't we? Nothing in my post, other in my comment about the 3870 x2, was referring to, or directed to you personally. Nor, did I use the term Fanboi. All the rest was general in nature, and the OMGZ was to inject a bit of humor. But then you seem to be so full of yourself that humor is lost on you.
I'll also note, that quite contrary to your belief, the 3870 x2 is not 2 GPUs in crossfire. If it was then one wouldn't get the performance you do in non-crossfire applications. This isn't my "opinion", nor it it from a "2nd and 3rh hand reoprt". It's my actual experience, as I have, and am currently using a Sapphire 3870 x2 in my system.
Put your fingers in your ears and shout NAAAA, NAAAA, NAAAA, stick your head in the sand, or anything else you want to do to try to ignore it, but Vista and 64-bit Operating Systems are here, and here to stay. The advantages are there whether you choose to believe it or not.
Your attitude is nothing new. I saw it in the move from BPS to DOS and then to VMS back in my main-frame days, which were most likely before you were born.
Dump on Vista, and 64-bit OSs all you want to. They are here and they are the future. You can lead, or you can follow. Just don't get in the way of those that wish to move on to bigger and better things.
