I was there and had exclusive access to a lot of those things. When I get a chance I'll most likely upload a gallery. I had a bunch of hands on time with all the AMD stuff. I was at the invite only keynote and afterwards. I have pics of all the Steamboxes that were at the Valve booth. Also got 45 minutes with Palmer Luckey and Oculus VR.

Here are a few random pics. They looked interesting but are about only 5-10% of what I shot at CES.
