    Re: News - AMD and NVIDIA jostle for Windows 7 kudos

    I'll be happy just to have working drivers in time for Windows 7 RTM. At least it'll help heal the wounds left from using NVIDIA's drivers the first 6 months or so in Vista. Weren't so quick to shout then were they
    My only concern is should I hide my true identity? A costume maybe?

    0iD: Plus weeing in it every now & again does it good
    scaryjim: 10" is just a little large to hold comfortably in one hand, which makes it a lot harder to tap, swipe and generally interact with.
