Well, it was you that got out the 'Clue Bat', could you perhaps reitterate what you though was originally wrong enough to warrant that?

BTW, could you also please point me to an available 4890 X2?
The 295 is significantly faster than a 4870 X2... the 4890 was rumoured then never released (sensibly, would simply be too expensive).
The prices of a 295 and a 4870 X2 are about even here, for reference.
