I'm flattered, but just because I arrive tomorrow, does not mean it marks the official start of the event!

Nvidia conference starts in an hour for anyone interested! The line is pretty long already here, but I've heard talk that the line for the Microsoft Keynote in 3 hours is already growing. Heading straight there after this, and I hope I get in!

That's a bit concerning to me. I hope the first gen of Kepler doesn't 'meh' out of the gate like the 400 series did when everyone was expecting 500 series performance, and Nvidia just couldn't deliver it.

As the story goes...

On the first day, Glorious Leader said "create dance!"

And Glorious leader saw everything that he had made, and, behold, it was very good.





PS. Because I know someone out of you is going to ask, yes thats a bunch of Kingston, Antec, and Gigabyte parts frozen into a block of ice in the background.
