Their issues are:
I think that their point that it's an $800 product for a last-gen card, there really isn't anyone out there that should buy this, and therefore it's a bad product is valid. They could have handled the whole thing better and honestly should've just scrapped the video before release.
Auctioning off the prototype when the company asked for it back is pretty inexcusable. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt that it wasn't malicious, but they clearly have problems with internal communication of things like this are happening.
At any rate, it's going to be a spicy WAN show this week. Linus needs to actually watch the video and address this point-by-point. If he "reads the comments" or cherry picks some of GN's weaker arguments he's just going to end up throwing fuel on the fire.
I dont think it was malicious, but it is incredibly negligent. It puts a huge stain on the company that’s expected to honor embargos for unreleased products.
@wordle I also have the same thoughts as you.
