    I think anand is too busy getting himself ready for the wedding to bother with us mere mortals :p

    I wonder whether all the Lifers on the forms have invites!

    Sorry! I meant where is the Weekly Buyer's Guide: Overclocking System - April 2004?

    I am exited to read it.

    Where is the overclocking guide?

    I have the feeling that a certain someone is behind tightly locked doors, playing with a GeForce 6800!

    Question is, does he have a Radeon X800 Pro to play with too?

    :)

    #10: I think he's trying to say that the NV40 will be released before the R420 and that is why it will be reviewed first.

    Your comments about NV40 are misleading, Anand. Basically, what you said is that YOU are choosing to review and post an article about NV40 before R420...

    Has ATI not yet sent a review sample?

    Anand,

    In that article you linked, you mentioned that Nvidia was awaiting the Opteron pretty heavily.

    Now that it's been released for a while, are they using Opterons extensively now?

    #7: You might want to start looking at company's job listings/requirement. Here's an example for a Sales position at ATI:

    Anand,

    How's it going? This sounds a little foolish, I know, but I have a bit of advice to ask of you. I am really interested in graphical processing units. I really want to work with the folks in this field, but I am unsure about how to approach a company like ATi for a job. I want to work in the marketing sector, where I could communicate with developers, gamers, and investors. What kind of qualities, things on the resume, do they look for? I thought you would know.

    Thanks. :)

    Hmm ok how about this, you'll read about NV40 before you read about R420. Is that an ok scrap to tide you over for a couple of weeks?

    Exactly. Unfortunately the vast majority of professors I've had are very poor lecturers. Scanning/Parsing can be tough to get at first but once you understand it, it's not bad at all. But I guess it's that first part that you're stuck on at this point :)

    GhandiInstinct

    I know it's a big cliché, but you'll know when you are. You always want to be with the person, it's a person who will always make you smile, who you'd never want to hurt or see hurt, someone who just puts you in an extremely good mood just by being there, someone who can offer a single smile and that's all it takes to make your day wonderful. Being in love is something that you find for yourself, I can't really give you a definition of exactly what signs to look for, I can only tell you some of what it means to me. But what everyone does say is true - you'll know when you are. (the smiling is usually a dead giveaway)

    That being said, I think (and know) it is very possible to be in love but not have found true love. What really makes love concrete is when your feelings for the person you love always grow, and they are honestly equaled by your love's feelings for you. If there's an imbalance in the relationship (e.g. one person cares more than another) then bad things are bound to happen. You know that golden rule they always taught us in elementary school? Treat people the way you'd want to be treated? Well, love someone the way you'd want to be loved and make sure that you are loved that way. That (to me at least) is a big part of being in love and loving someone.

    Hope I've helped.

    Take care,
    Anand

    Anand, when and how do you tell, that you're in love?

    I went to NCSU just like you did. But I just drank beer and hit on sorority girls the whole time.

    Give the guy a break man!

    I think a lecturer really makes or breaks a class. A good lecturer and good notes (and an easy exam) make a dull subject interesting (well nearly)! I'd say compilers is fairly interesting, if I could only find out how to do this LL(r) parsing! I guess I would like it more if I understood more of what was being taught....so I'll blame it on the lecturer ;)

    And seriously dude.....u got it baaaadd :)
