hey guys, remember my "ideas" on Tom's hardware a while back?
Well, I haven't had time to stir the kettle, I have had A LOT of response from that ONE post on Tom's forums. I haven't attempted to defend my statements, as I thought the initial post qualified to defend itself. I have had a lot of support from you guys here in the form of emails. And mad praise all across the net for attacking head on some irregularities in the site's integrity in testing and opinion making.
Anyway, the latest reply to my post came tonight. It was rather funny, and I thought it would be fun to share with you guys what this, *ahem* Tom happy person had to say. BTW, He does mention, how ATi is sponsoring this web site. Which, if it is, I want muh damn money!

You have no idea what you are talking about. I know for a fact that Tom DOES NOT HAVE NVIDIA AS AN ADVERTISER. However, ATI DOES advertise. Look at the following URL http://www6.tomshardware.com/graphic/index.html
You fool! Look before you leap man because you just jumped off of a cliff!
If you have read other GREAT or CONFLICTING reports of ATI's recent products it is because ATI is spreading money all over the web at the moment and some puny ass websites with no morals will kiss up to their advertisers. Tom could care less about this and it is policy at Tom's Hardware to separate advertising and reviews. Just look at how Tom routinely slams his motherboards advertisers products! You do not know what you are talking about man. Tom's Hardware Guide is one of the fairest if not THE fairest Hardware Website on the net. Yes his emotions and OPINIONS leak out in his reviews and the ways that his German reviewers write are direct and to the point and sometimes blunt as hell, but they don't beat around the bush.
If you can find anywhere in that Radeon review that is a lie point it out now.

One more thing. That website rage3d.com looks like an ATi sponsored site. Most all of their articles are on ATI's products only. I only looked it over briefly, but I couldn't even find a review of the Geforce MX.

Nice way to put it. Tom is on a moral crusade at times and that causes him to go overboard at times in the way he reviews certain products. But he never lets advertising affect his judgement and by the way Nvidia doesn't even advertise.
By the way Tom didn't even do the review in question. It was someone named Uwe.
