What time does the Ivy Bridge NDA lift?

qubit · Apr 23, 2012

It's Ivy Bridge launch day here in England and I'm on tenterhooks for the reviews. So, what time does the NDA lift, relative to GMT?

Waiting waiting!!!

MeanBruce · Apr 23, 2012

Looks like we have to wait for Santa Clara to wake up and make some coffee, I'm guessing 9am PST!

Thanks. I see from your avatar that your brain is quite small. It is however, bigger than mine. :laugh:

considering that midnight pst passed and nothing happened, that time seems to be a good guess

Surely you must now the time, W1zz? I'll bet you have a review or two tucked under your sleeve...

btw, I'm taking the vallium to calm my nerves in the meantime.

I'm sure you read some previews by now and know what to expect.

Id bet he does, and as such, cannot tell anyone.

But I do like that person's guess as well... so I can buy one today... :toast:

+1 full previews have been all over the net for weeks.

A quote from the Anandtech forums:

Are we there yet?

Are we there yet?

Are we there yet?

qubit · Apr 23, 2012

Yes, we've had all the leaks and previews, but I want to know when the official NDA lifts! C'mon guys, it's a nerdgasm thing, you understand.

TheMailMan78 · Apr 23, 2012

I think everyone is expecting to much.

Thanks that's the answer I was looking for.

Now to convert to GMT. That's 8 hours behind, making it 5pm GMT. Less than 1.5 hours to go!

BumbleBee · Apr 23, 2012

Oh really now? :laugh:

If it was I'd have retail chips already. I do not have retail chips.

But if you got a link for a store in Edmonton with them ,let me know, I'll hop in the car and go check.

well, having to suffer for at least two weeks waiting for the ipad3, a little while longer for a product that may or may not be available in quantity... is a cake walk.... sarcasm :rolleyes:
