This looks really good actually! If it would be streamed, at least partially, it would be awesome too!

Also nice to see no NDAs!

So long as they don't use Youtube for the Live Streaming Event. That shit was a nightmare for AMD's R-200 Series launch.

Yeah, I'd rather watch it on Ustream or Livestream, like I did tonight with SpaceX's unveiling of the Dragon v2 crewed module on LS.
