I'm sure there has got to be other Freeper's out there who game... :) Found this article today:

A PC hardware review site has interviewed a company called Bigfoot Networks on its pending "Killer Gaming Nic" - it promises greatly reduced ping and latency for online gaming. Hope it really works!

If I typed out what I really thought about this 'product' I would get shot by the mods.


The folloing quotes from their article show they are all about smoke and flash not about performance. One doesn't improve performance by loading on tons of junk.
