I didn't thing it was worth mentioning since it was indeed obvious and I didn't want to spoil the fun of trolling people who didn't know

Talking about it, yesterday I participated on a Unreal Tournament III contest here promoted by intel, and I got to the finals, but I lost for a 7 kills, being the fourth place
I was so close to getting an i7 Extreme Edition (the prize) it makes me said ...

oooo, ut3
i loved every UT game, and i still play them once in a while to date; but UT3 is my favorite followed VERY closely by 2k4. just to bad the community didn't pick it up like its predecessors

A whole lot of companies. The biggest one is our national telephone company, which is the brand of like 90% of the telephone lines here. But there are a lot of known sponsors too, like NVidia, Intel, HP, Thermaltalke, CCE, a bunch of Alienware-like stores, and another bunch of PC case brands, plus some other ones...

I just got back from an amazing Nvidia Conference about Tegra tech, and they said at the end that the first two people to bring them their GFX cards would be awarded with an GTX 560. I ran to my PC but the screws were tight so I didn't make it in time... I got a T-shirt with the Eye tough, pretty cool, the guy was trowing them at the crowd.

Wow, some big names there and for only $183 but you'd have to be lucky to win something, try and win something dude

I just got back from the Game Development with DirectX conference, and I must say, I really felt in love with the DX API. The code doesn't look easy to port to other platforms, but I always hear people describing DX aplications as a mess code-wise, while I found it pretty powerful and robust, after the guy explained how it worked. Plus, HLSL code is just beautiful.

I always feared DirectX development a little but now I definitely want to learn it, too bad anything I want to do in it will have to be heavily rewritten to work in other environments.

YE THE FULL 2 PLATFORMS


DX is far from cross platform. SDL & OpenGL on the other hand...
