Nah he got his through, as Ronin put his signature, the equivelent of video card food stamps.
He probably didn't spend a dime. Althoug you wonder since he posted here 90% of the time if that focus group is still interested in his opinion.

i doubt they get free stuff everytime something is released. ive spoken with rollo on occasion and im under the impression that a good chunk of his hardware is purchased with his own £££

him and his wife are both bread winners so he has plenty of cash floating around to do the things he likes. i can only salute him for being in that kind of position because its sure nice to be secure like that.

so please dont go making ****** up unless you know, he definately doesnt get everything for free.

come on people, i don't think rollo has to DEPEND on those video card food stamps

i mean, if a poor college student like me can afford sli with only a part time job

what do you think about rollo who's pretty well off?!

I have that quote in my sig because it was an idiotic statement to begin with.

Rollo buys MOST of his hardware, FYI. He's only received items recently, and not that many to begin with.

Back on topic, please.

i couldn't help myself... i told myself i was gonna buy the ATI but after hearing about it's noise, power consuption and heat levels.. I decided to go with nvidia and ordered th evga 690/1.76 7900gtx !

spent 680$ with tax and shipping (CDN) from ncix.com

and they've got it on backorder already.. so sad :( hope it doesn't take too long.. as long as it's in time for oblivion I'll be happy though

upgrading from a 6600GT !!! big upgrade huh... can't wait!
