    Nvidia in Deep dodo

    http://www6.tomshardware.com/graphic...912/index.html

    Because of the ongoing discussions regarding "legal" or "illegal" driver optimizations, some people lost trust in NVIDIA. The new critics from Valve won't help NVIDIA to get this trust back.

    That was a little harsh don't you think. We all make mistakes, at least some of us will admit to them.

    Also, I believe he meant to spell doodoo that way as he was going for the whole analogy of how Nvidia may end up extinct like the dodo bird. Right xelaeel?

    The title "Nvidia in Deep dodo" doesn't make sense if he really meant dodo.(bird) It should say "Nvidia becoming like dodo".
