Probably has nothing at all to do with Nvidia. The box says "Mvidea".
Inquirer needs to send sober people to these things. It's also a "Digital Satellite Reciever" which doesn't mean it has to have a G-anything chip on it. Look at tv tuner cards. There's also no indication on the box that this is a PC part. It could simply be a set-top sattelite reciever. Mvidea models of those allready exist. Google for "mvidea 4000".

This is like seeing a box that says Macrosoft and thinking MS is changing their image.

You didn't catch the point that the whole article was a joke?

There we go. Supposed to be a joke then.
I figured I'd e-mail the guy and see if he was serious.
I guess it could be a joke though, but even I don't make jokes that bad, heh.

Mvidea! :wtf:

Mo word om the pipelimes or memory bamdwidth of this mew momster, or if it is the famed G71 after all. Either way, expect it to be fast amd released om time. What more would you expect from MVidia. µ
