While my girlfriend was having an unpleasant nightmare about spiders crawling all over her, I was having a dream that, after the fact, is a bit more disturbing. Apparently the 9900's had come out and I had procured two of them. Crysis was topping 121 fps. I was so damn happy, then sad when I woke up and it wasn't true, then even more sad when I realized I now dream about video cards. I need to go camping or something.

LOL, for your girl camping and spiders won't mix but you definately need to hit the beach or a ball game, or the zoo or something.

Kreia- Does it matter? Of course it does; such titles allow us to rip the galaxy into two halves: light and dark, good and bad. Perhaps I am neither, and I hold both as what they really are: pieces to a puzzle.

When I play late into the night I will get those BF dreams too. Sad indeed. I had a horrible one about getting knifed after playing a long night of knife only servers. Strangely there is never blood...

well in computer terms, Dreams are caused when your brain is doing a disk defrag, it is said that when the brain is sorting things out we dream about those things, thats why dreams dont make sense they are made up from experiances/feelings that we have had in the past...

so for example your dream is made up of two things, the excitment of having a new graphics card(which has probably happened to you in the past, or you have seen someone in the same state), put together with a likely card for Nvidia to upgrade too through rumors...

this is how we have deja vu, say you dream that you are taking a test and one of the questions, happens to pop up on the Real test, this is because you are stressed about the test and probably have read a similiar question before in a mock exam, you just dont remember properly so you jump to the conclusion of Deja Vu or in extreme cases that you predicted the future(which is bollox)
