http://www.notebookreview.com/default.asp?newsID=4094I don't appreciate being called a liar. I work with computers for a living, have for nearly a decade... I think I know a little something about something.
*I won't believe this is actually a real game until it is downloaded into my machine, which, at that time, I will run naked down my street, begging forgiveness of each dev listed in this thread.

Not interested in your apology, but posting the same comment to every thread is not cool. Quite thread jacking, you've been warned.
happy hunting...and BTW...get the 9800Nvidia...put it on a quad core intel machine with 8gb of Ram, a 500gb SATA, with Xp loaded, and you have the fastest machine on earth.

Vista SUCKS
Agreed. I prefer Win 2K to XP even, but can't get drivers for the 64 bit version for all my hardware so stuck with Vista, at least till I book up Fedora

BTW, 9800 is a series of video cards, not a single one. There's the GT, the GTX, GTX+, and GX2. However, none of them qualifies as el cheapo, though I personally consider the 9800GT to be pretty solid bang for the buck, though, unless you're gonna SLI, I would go with the 8800GTX instead as they both share the same G92 GPU but one saves you a bit of cash.
