Like I said, ANN poster could be anyone. If I saw a post there from say Red, I take it with a grain of salt. If I see it here, I know almost 100% for sure it's Red.


LOL I see my name mentioned alot in your post, I am sooo flattered:-D

, and if you are backing his / this post as comming from Chris then I'll take you're word for it.


Well looking at his profile I'd say this is definately him, hard to fake a registered user's email address with A-Org's registration policy:-)

@Ponos2D

If I were you, I'd just get and use the most recent "fixed" driver from Elbox. You already own the hardware.

As for testing yourself, the first thread on ANN has alot of detail how to do the test yourself.

I don't care if he worked beside Jay Miner, the fact is the driver he used to make his conclusions from was PIRATED and therefore reduces any credibility I have over his findings, and also doesn't look very good about his reputation.


Whoa whoa whoa!! insinuating Chris Hodges is a pirate IMO is uncalled for and wrong. He wrote the Stack for the Spider, and he is legally entitled to know if his product is is being bundled with blatantly illegal software. This is serious, any potential lawsuits against Elbox could also affect him! Besides considering his stack is part of the MMCD, he's by default co-copyright owner of it. The industry standard would be for Elbox to send Chris a CD when published, but obviously Elbox does not conform to any industry standards or laws for that matter. :-x
