The GeForce 8800 GT is the low end of the 8800 series (not "the latest and greatest")and this is intended to be an upgrade package. It's not unreasonable to expect an upgrade to play nice with older components, this is the entire purpose of such an upgrade product.

... wow, I hope that parody, but if not it's amazing how quickly the ignorant zero in on these little comments.

Jeremy, maybe you should read a book that *isn't* over 2000 years old sometime?

Who's going to buy this again? Yeah, that's right, no one...

Quoting Matthew:
---------------
moose:had he lived 150 years ago, he would have supported slavery, and had he lived 50 years ago, he would have supported segregation.

What evidence have you found to support these claims? I am guessing none, since you obviously didn't know Ron Paul is over 70 years old, so he was very much alive 50 years ago. Or are you that bad at basic math?
---------------

Uh, those two issues segregation and slavery, where states-rights issues. You'd have to be blind to miss that Ron Paul is a states-rights kind of guy, of course he'd be against abolition and integration. He would share the stance of all the other states-righters of the time...

:) mee!

What does *God* need with GPS?

Um, It's not a review, it's a product announcement. And they don't think it's a shitty product because of personal incredulity, it's a shitty product because it's a shitty product.

@Chris

You are referencing a highly controversial claim made by a pair of scientists that have not published, nor have they submitted their data to peer-review. You cannot argue against a long-standing consensus with unconfirmed and frankly just plain *shady* data from a pair of fringe ideologues.

BTW, the cosmic role in cloud cover formation is highly speculative *and* the IPCC reports show no measurable change in cloud cover in the past seven years. That cosmic rays have affected the Earth's albedo is the real fallacious claim.

@Chris

I know this is hard to follow, while your vaunted "800 year lag" claim sounds compelling, it is in fact completely irrelevant. It's clearly the result of a feedback system and even if it weren't none of those measurements cover a time when humankind is pumping CO2 into the atmosphere. Just because CO2 appears to follow temperature in the ice core record does not mean that is the only possible relationship between CO2 and temperature.

How about you present evidence for your outrageous claim. IPCC evidence *fabricated* and admitted to *on camera*. That is simply not the case. The IPCC is a collection of research done by other organizations, it's claims and positions are by far the most conservative in all of the scientific community. There is no question within the community that global warming is occurring, that it's a result (at least in part) of human actions and that it's a serious threat to mankind. Of all peer-reviewed scientific papers published in the last seven years *not a single* paper has contradicted anthropomorphic global warming or the IPCC conclusion.

Anyone, such as you, who suggests different must provide actual evidence to support that claim. Now scurry off and prove your spurious accusations. I'll wait.
