    Dear Sean,

    We here at ------- regret to inform you.
    Your current system does not meet our minium system spec`s.
    Should you upgrade before the beta is over you could reapply.!

    Didcha try to be a beta tester for Unreal3? It's not surprising your rig doesn't meet the requirement. But really, what fricking game beta is THAT? If your rig doesn't measure up, I can't think of many that can..... * looks sadly at own rig*

    Maybe your system is too good? I've heard the some companies use mid-range to low-end pc's to do beta testing.

    Dude it's because you're only running an Enermax 550W PSU. They expect everyone to be running the Enermax 650W PSU. Get with it rookie! (yes, I am kidding)

    Maybe they saw that you had an Audiogly instead of an Audigy.

    well it could be that they want to test pixel shader 3.0. so you're system requirements are not good enough since there are no ati cards wich support that.

    or maybe they want to test 64 bit 'stuff' dunno. all possible :P

    above is only a example, could be something like that.

    Well, I would email them and see if you can get them to explain, how your system is not good enough.
