Default Still think NVidia is a goo honest company?

When times are tough, the true image will emerge:

Well then, I'm glad I got the 9800 for the 9800 price and not paid out the nose for the 250 only to get the same thing

ATI has done the same thing

actually both companies have done this a couple of times before so should I care about this?
No.

Companies always pull out some marketing tricks too fool the customer, reason why you never must trust their ''first hand reviews''

Subman1, SubSim's very own anti-Nvidia preacher.

I love Nvidia, well, I get the EVGA versions. I do not care for ATI at all.

I don't like either Nvidia or ATI much, they both do sleezy and dishonest crap, manipulate reviewers, and gouge the heck out of the consumer.

I also have a burning hatred for Apple for pretty much the same reasons (particularly price gouging).
