  • Power of Matroxusers!

    UPDATE: Due to reader feedback we've decided to re-run the Matrox scores with the TurboGL drivers. Look for the updated article to debut shortly.

    This is from firingsquads main page.

    It cracks me up to see such support for a computer product! heheheh

    Way to go Mucers and Murcettes

    They should have gotten it right the first time. The board has been out too long for this type of mistake to be made. In addition, one of Firingsquad's editors is a Matrox user and a MURC member.

    I think this review was rushed to press, and the pressure of deadlines may have contributed to this gaff. I still don't think that's a good excuse. The darn board is as fast or faster than the TNT2U in nearly every test (3DMark2000 being a notable exception).

        I hope Rags comes along and tells how his latest lost FedX shipment was resolved. Apparently someone at FedX must be a MURCer. They contacted him and replaced his order.

        Also, with all the talent we have here we should start our own company.

          I don't really trust Firing Squad for hardware. They don't seam to keen on the subject. Game reviews and previews on the other hand are great...

            Paul is correct. After me making my whining post in the soap box about my mishaps with FedEx, I recieved a mailing from someone there who apologized and said they would ship it to me o/n at no charge. They even went as far as to source out my parts, and I got a retail processor instead of an OEM. Funny thing, though is that I mailed a formal complaint to them, and never recieved one piece of correspondence from them. I post on the MURC, and BAM! action. This place has some people reading it who care, and that my friends is power.

                I just wanted to thank who ever this is at FedX that read Rag's post in the Soap Box and got his parts to him.

                A BIG MURCer THUMBS UP to who ever helped him out at FedX!!!

                  Formal complaints with specific details get alot of attention at Fed Ex, or any other corporation looking to maintain a good reputation.
