INVESTORS ON A YAHOO board are wondering just how Nvidia will justify pulling in a famous porn star at a party held at the E3 games show recently.

A number of investors in the Yahoo investor board here and here have expressed their surprise that Nvidia paid for a lady called Catalina to turn up at a party.

At the same party, Nvidia hired Smashmouth to play the music.

One investor said: "God is it possible that its shareholders who were paying for this mascarade (sic) with pornstar, bar open and pricy rock star band?".

Another said: "Some came to see, some came to be seen. It is a huge alarming sign for all investors. If porn whore runs NVDA corp parties and I'm shorting more stock".

Another commented: "At least the employees are having fun. Oh, and compensated".

But one investor said: "Just for the record, ATI had Smashmouth at their Siggraph 2001 party. Looks like Nvidia is playing catch-up for the second time this year". µ
