Re: ATI's secret

I believe it's a PR stunt for their forthcoming R420 (Radeon X800 Pro) graphics card.

The HTML contained this:

Quote:
<input type="hidden" name="hidType" id="hidType" value="R420-Launch">
Which was later edited.

Wanna see what the R420 is capable of in real time?

Check out these Microsoft XNA demo's, which were run on "next generation ATI hardware".

Have you read the first line on that Microsoft link?

"Microsoft XNA is the catalyst for a new ecosystem of interchangeable, interoperable software tools and technologies from Microsoft."

What exactly is an ecosystem of interchangable interoperable software? Looks like MS's marketing boys are smoking something iffy again!

This explains XNA is less 'Redmondy' terms:
