When the "Science" page is nothing more than more self promoting marketing
you have to wonder.  Sounds like just another gimmick (bunch of crap) to
rake in some cash on unsuspecting gamers with more money than sense.
RAM-Doubler s/w of the mid nineties comes to mind :)

When it sounds to good to be true it's usually to good to be true...

Bollocks.

Any benefits would be absolutely minimal at best.

Negative-Negative-Negative without knowing a thing about it!
Hope it does what it says and you all can become positive-positive_positive.

That was my point.  You go to the website to FIND OUT and all you get is
more hype without ANY substance.  So yes, negative....  Do you have
something to add that will make it look more positive?  Fairytale land is
for fools and children...

Actually, RAM Doubler on the Mac was a very useful product if for no other
reason than it replaced Apple's inefficient VM system with one that actually
worked right.

Thx for the heads-up.
