Good interview; we've had the odd Inno3D card via the DabsValue range (I'm on one of their 7300GTs at the mo - OK, not high end, but this is a work machine) and they've been very good value and reliable as half a brick in a sock.

Cracking video. Nick looked like he was having fun, and so did the interviewee for a change. They often look a bit bemused :)

I wasn't there, but from her accent I'd be prepared to bet she studied in Australia. :)

I just didn't find it a surprise that their marketing person was a fluent english speaker.

thinking about it a little, i find it more surprising that the other interviewees aren't so fluent. Perhaps it's because it is a mainly far eastern trade show as opoosed to CeBit being international.

You'd be surprised at how well some Taiwanese and mainland Chinese speak English. I met a guy working for QDI about ten years ago in mainland China who had never left China in his life, but spoke incredibly idiomatic English, like he'd live in the UK. I was incredibly impressed, and shamed at just how rubbish we British are at learning the languages of others.

My uncle says the same. He has been to china a lot in the past year selling university courses and getting exchanges in place.

Green tea and whisky is a favourite apparently.

I can attest to the fact that Caroline is as effervescent as that in real life.

For what it's worth, she was born and raised in Australia. The twang gives it away. :)
