So, where is the list of TRAITORS and THIEFS that got away with the FREE HARDWARE?

You need material for the Zine Radioshow?
Okay, so I know we promised to tell you guys who got demobox kits, but due to internal privacy policies at NVIDIA, we can't actually do that. Our bad, since we should have checked with them before promising to release a list. We just want to emphasize that there was no "you must release"-clause when people applied for the demobox kits, and nobody needs to return it. It's theirs for the keeping and we hope they use it to make more and better demos, which was the initial point anyway.

So, if you really really REALLY want to know who got the kits and who didn't, asking around is probably your best approach. Some people have already talked openly about getting the kit already so it's not like they keep it a secret :)

bah, you just kept half of the demokits for yourself and don't want to reveal that!

ps: i didn't hear about any quality groups whose requests were denied(?).. so afaik, one could only argue nvidia might have given a few demoboxes too many to some people with questionable track records, resulting in envy among some of their peers.

what about 'FR getting 5 boxes' rumour ?

AFAIK, Paniq and Tournesol (maybe among others) got demoboxes for making the NVScene invitation.
what hahahaahha :)))

keep rumouring more! it's quite interesting. who got the boxes ??! who didnt! like it's most important thing ever... :P

uns3en: Totally.
I heard Johny Depp got a demobox. Is this rumor true?!

I heard Kusma got a special demobox with 2 gameboy advances and a jar of pickles. Is this true?

I got a demobox but it was filled with ice weasels :( I'm *STILL* not amused by that!

atleast the new pixar film will be animated using a demobox :)
added on the 2008-09-04 18:33:46 by magic magic
I did not apply for a demobox and I did not get any! There's certainly a conspiracy at play here!

i dont like rumours, i like transparency.

havoc: i'm more curious how many musicians of high class countries got demoboxes to do a 5 minute track on renoise in detriment of lower class country coders. for example.

I wonder what incentive NVidea has in store for 2009 :)

I heard that the demo boxes have a secret chip inside them that steals your code and mails it to Nvidia officials.

i heard nvidia demoboxes did wtc! it wasn't the zionists/jews afterall :P

I heard the remaining NVidia demoboxes were traded for Nazi gold and are now lost in the Amazon, guarded by a man whose insides are made from the cogs who put knittingscholars out of work at the dawn of the industrial revolution!!!!!!!

ps: you couldn't possibly judge that fairly without knowing exactly who signed up to receive a demobox...

the list of accepted demobox requests is of no interest to me. a list of denied demobox requests might be, but i don't understand why people would keep quiet about it if they had been mistreated, so i assume it will not lead to any new insights. (again, feel free to correct me if i'm wrong.)
