This is like seeing an old high school friend you've lost touch with become president. I calculated my profits had I invested in Nvidia instead of buying my first Nvidia GPU (8800GTX+ in Fall 2008) and my $200 GPU would be $108k invested, Lol! Hell of an expensive Crisis game.

Around year 2000 I wrongly predicted Nvidia would integrate a physically based sound generator that could produce sounds for objects in games, for example how a coin sounds when falling on a wood table, given the shapes, distances and forces.
