         Heck, I've got them hooked up all over the house.

Not only do I have a houseful of Display****t monitors, HDTVs and
videocards 
here, but I bought some of them new Genesis gm580x6 Series chips at Lowe's

and installed them myself.  Or maybe it was Kmart™, I forget....

I remember the elderly check-out lady was asking me about them. I told her

that I had googled "Display****t Genesis" and found 26,500 hits. She pulled
a 
pad of paper from under the counter and carefully wrote everything down..

And I managed all of this only a few months after the IC controller was 
officially introduced at last January's CES.   Imagine.
