Well, it's definately an "out of the frying pan, into the fire" moment.
I just hope people can back off a bit and give everyone a break. Expectations were already high and the announcement that Hyperion are going to be there is going to turn the heat right up!
Sorry to sound negative, but don't be disappointed if you're not walking away with a
A1G3SE +
Radeon 9700PRO +
SB Live! +
ETC,ETC +
OS4.0
If it does happen, then it'll be a huge shock. I expect Ben Hermans to have something up his sleeve (and not just a few dozen copies of Quake II either!), but there will be a lot of hat-eating if it's OS4 running on the A1G3SE.
Still, I'm confident that many (most?) will be confident that we're really close to the OS4 release.
