June 27, 200224 yr For those that haven't been following this humourous saga. I'll give you a short summary. One of nvidia's executive's child wanted a gamecube but wasn't allowed one because of ATI tech unless he got it for free. Well ATI did send him one! Along with this letter.Dear ATI Fan,We don't blame you for being unhappy with your X-Box gaming experience. But the good news is that your friends at ATI are about to put an end to your suffering--enclosed is a brand new Nintendo Gamecube, featuring award-winning ATI graphics. We've also enclosed a complete assortment of ATI giveaways and branded merchandise for you to enjoy, including hats, shirts, sweatshirts, vests, bags, flashlights, pens--and even flashlight pens. And because we know you're already planning on wearing this around the house, when your dad's co-workers come over for dinner, to Nvidia company picnics, etc., we've included a special bonus - one of the hottest new games for Gamecube - Spiderman. We're sure you'll like Spiderman, because he's a red-costumed good-guy superhero who battles against his evil green nemesis, the Green Goblin, and ultimately defeats him with superior speed and a unique feature set. Once again, thank you for choosing ATI. Cheers!! Chris HookJohn SwinimerPR Managers, ATI Technologies Inc.Source : www.rage3d.com & www.theinquirer.net

August 15, 200422 yr Hah...... if only I got something free like this. Spiderman... feature set........looks pretty odd as in asking, "what is your feature-set?" to a human, but yes, it all falls in place. The analogy wasn't entirely meant to be innocent - that had some self-promotion by ATi.
