BOULDER, Colo. – Dec. 19 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — CORRECTION: In the press release issued earlier today by Send2Press for WidowPC, we inadvertently altered the headline, which should have read: NVIDIA 8800M GTX Laptop Video Card Shipped First by WidowPC. The text as originally issued stated ‘Nvidia 8800M GRX’ which was our error. Full corrected story follows.
