    Ups, BiBa is Richard; paying better attention...and taking more time while reading...
    Well, lets say your photo is the nicest. We don't want your colleagues having a fit of vapors. (Victorian time meaning).

    P193
    the company can hardly afford themselves such an approach towards Bit-tech. Without a review from your site I would hardly consider a product; so many others. The UK market is huge, the loss of clients even bigger; example: I personally can see the Mediterranean Sea from my window. The producer takes the pain to obtain a professional review, the clients will take the pains to search for it in the overfilled market.
    The news report was East End like (prior world war); the case would slide down the refined French gullet much easily if tarred with more suavity.

    Xclio a380 has fragile fan blades, airflow inside is caotic and not acousticaly pleasant,... Tagan has also nice cases which are hard to come by.

    Already explained: not available in shops, price, market presence is not exsisting(future service, support,...), pro review missing, ., paying 80 bucks for lights that I'll turn off.

    Well theres the Black Pearl By Tagan/Aplus/Nanopoint which is certainly big and sturdy (I use mine as a table). Stock cooling is terrible though but there's certainly room for more fans.

    It's around £170 last time I checked.

    For 200 pounds (fans and case) I don't expect additional Lego work. Besides, the market position of this brand is exotic; reason? Long term consequences for customer?

    I have a suspicion you can't be pleased then with a case. Watercooling maybe?

    Oh I can; HAF 932 WITH DUST FILTERS. The biggest problem are dual graphic cards (unless BiBa finds out another motherboard by then); water cooling them is...

    Please stay around.

    Answer: HAF with your mums/wifes/gf's stockings. Stretch and staple.

    What is right, well: I see something the like at delicatessen. Fans with usually blue lights; I think it's a fly attraction mery-go-round. (you can't have them all across ham, prosciutto, fromage,...)
    I've applied my mothers' sheer stockings on the main cilindrical HEPA filter of an bag-less Electrolux vacuum cleaner; the durabilty improved to no end. Still it was obvious that it was no good; the solution was a Bosch 8series vac.clea.-it's more than perfect.
    I can't put something the like in our living room. I hope that you'll review till rv8x0 an appropriate case (I'm not asking that much of a case).

    microsoft- the general public will be able to download Windows 7 RC starting Tuesday May 5th.


    Nvidia will start mass production of 40nm GPUs in late second quarter with base level GT218 and mainstream GT216 and GT214.
    Nvidia will probably be fast enough to counter Ati's RV8x0.
    Is ATI sleeping??

    I'm jealous.

    Nvidia will suffer greatly; 100 bucks for something better then the infamous GT9800 (selling for around 130).

    I feel a little better. Nvidia is just bragging to their own partners; mid October (15) for their performance part will occur only in case of a miracle. Even November date needs a miracle-no flaws in silicon (or very minor ones); both unrealistic.
    Only one correction will bring them to January 2010. Considering Nvidia's prowess it is possible to calculate two correction seasions.

    conclusion: they will be ready for the next summer.

    What will they sell until then?

    Latest: GTX 295 frequencies impede remote opened doors (garage, courtyard,...). Im is funny only on first look; the amount of electromagnetic vaves is prone to transform the player in one of the game characters (Fallout 3). Submersive play.

    Without the black box attachement it performs in a very non satisfactional way in the case of a dual graphic setup. (negative air pressure concept). As already (precedent posts) cleared in all detail.
