Except that Opera Software is a Norwegian company (Norway is not a part of the EU).

Dunno, but I think membership is key to getting EU backing..

The black chick with the 'fro and the mustache? Umm, I think that's a guy.

Anyway, I see your point, Night assault mission all the way. Certainly not candid camera.

Cheaper... heh

USD 499,- can hardly be described as cheap..

Uses 2 x G98 processors.

Thats 2 mobile Geforce 9300 (same as Macbook Air) on a single PCB.
Combined TDP: ~40W.

I doubt you'll even hear the fan.

It is cheap because it is a low-end card.

The Quadro FX series is directed towards CAD workstations and are usually built on high-end chips. Lots of stream processors, VRAM, OpenGL optimization etc. Good 3D performance. Expensive.

The Quadro NVS is directed towards Professionals with 2D rather than 3D processing needs (financial analysts, graphic designers, anyone with the need for a HUGE desktop and/or several displays). Crappy 3D performance. Reasonable price.

For the price, a lot of non-workstation cards offer much better 3D performance for the price.

@kristoffer
It would be the same in Norwegian, as "kamera" is a genderles (intetkjønn) noun in both Norwegian and Danish.
Looks fake to me though.

Oh, yes!
Sweet HD!

Woohoo! I'll be the coolest cat in all of Northern Europe!

Yes, PLEASE! (drool)

Silver FTW!!
