Maybe Donninger had some experience with that particular programming beforehand,
that's just a laymans guess.
Yes i found the article to be VERY interesting especially the part about not
losing speed when adding knowledge to this new technology, personally i don't
find it that hard to believe since the engine is in the chip? (i'm so not a tech
expert) that was how i understood it anyway.
I would gladly pay 400$+ for a finished version of this hardware/engine or (how
much it will cost eventually) if what they say are true.
