    It would seem obvious that the growth of the computing market over the past years, would have a influence on graphic card designs.

    Manufacturers where in touch with consumers a few years ago, but in this market the average PC user had more technicle knowledge.

    Today the average joe public is caught up in the usual beat the joneses scenario wanting the lastest fad, now a computer.

    Its no wonder that many hardware manufacturers are getting into problems expecially with support as the feedback they are getting from end users will reflect from a user base with less knowledge of computing.

    I believe that once again the Nerds will triumph and stuff joe public if you can,t set it up don,t use it.

    "...Adding to the weight is the use of an LCD screen (not a TFT screen, which is on virtually all notebooks)."

    "...Certainly, this is a heavy system, and we are curious how the market will accept it."

    Okay, maybe I'm stupid, but this makes little sense to me. When you say something has a TFT screen, it means that it has an LCD screen using TFT technology. AFAIK there is no magical weight saving between the active and passive LCD technologies, so what is Mr Andrew Ku really saying?

    Perhaps he's saying that Anand or a Minion of Anand needs to sight these articles before they are viewed by the masses.
