Our nerd level keeps getting challenged. What to think about an Intel guy who even has his name written on his polo? A big welcome to our booth John, we’re confident you feel at  home.

But our Nerd-FM.com fans are really doing whatever it takes to get on our site. Beat this one! We love him already. Can you do better?

Thanks to Alienware we can offer all our fans the chance to win an Alienware M15x! This powerful machine with the new Intel Core i7 mobile processor will take you even further with features like Intel’s Hyper-Threading and Turbo Boost technologies that power you through games, multimedia applications and your daily routine all at the same time. Click here for all specs.

What to do? Just watch Uli’s video and follow his instructions! If you have the right answer simply enter the raffle.

May the nerd be with you.

You run around through the halls, seeing shirts you recognize

Then you want to be sure and you pass them.

Yes we do know these Dutch folks. So we take a closer look at their food.

Looks horrible. Bottom line – food is 100% Nerd-FM approved! Enjoy the mail.

Always on your side to get you the latest and greatest live from DreamHack. Kurt and Holly checking the sticker requests at the Nerd-FM.com’s Nerve Centre.

Jimmy dropped by on the booth. A bit exhausted but we think he has a very cool way of holding his laptop. KIDS DON’T TRY THIS AT HOME (or anywhere else by the way).

Eythor, one of the 4 finalists of the Intel Extreme Masters GameOn Country Cup Nordics arrived from Iceland.  Uli catched him and his friends for a first lesson on Intel ‘s SSD technology.

At 21:00, Eythor will compete in Quake Live versus one more player from Iceland and one from Sweden to find out who will represent Nordics in the next round versus the Country Cup winners in 9 other European countries. The competition will take place in the DreamArena Extreme so we got Eythor mentally up to speed.

Bas from KaoS uploaded a great movie on the first day of the Intel Pack4DreamHack trip. From departure in the Netherlands upon arrival at DreamHack Winter 2009.

Four minutes and 32 seconds (4×60 sec+32 sec=276 seconds) giving you a great insight into this adventure. In Dutch, but if you don’t understand Dutch, guess what you can learn it online.

Simply cick on one of the pics below. But of course come back later on.

Movie number 2 in the works. Looking at the movie crew today, should be a nice one.

We know DIRT2 is a hell of a game, but it seems that gamers start to struggle with fighting the power of gravity.

Every planetary body (including the Earth) is surrounded by its own gravitational field, which exerts an attractive force on all objects. Assuming a spherically symmetrical planet (a reasonable approximation), the strength of this field at any given point is proportional to the planetary body’s mass and inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the center of the body. The strength of the gravitational field is numerically equal to the acceleration of objects under its influence, and its value at the Earth’s surface, denoted g, is approximately expressed below as the standard average : g = 9.81 m/s² = 32.2 ft/s²

Short days over here in Jönköping, that’s for sure. It’s 15:30 and night has fallen upon us.

Local TV station with its helicopter keeps track of nerd movements.

Inside Hall B at the IEM booth, the first hand out of the new Nerd-FM stickers is a spot on activity dragging all fans together.

Hall D decided to go for a Xmas atmosphere.

With the entrance changed versus yesterday, we decided to of course replace our 1974 vehicles. Now in full glory at entrance.
