Re:"but I think Banshee is incapable of SLI..."

Res: My recollection is that the board consensus was that it wasn't ...Though the only thing from 3Dfx that I remember in the more general capability was in an interview with Scott Sellers (???) when asked if 2 Voodoo Banshee chips could be implemented on the same board no answer was provided.

Re: "What did the word "exclusive" mean in the 3Dfx and EA agreement?"

Res: The way I read the PR, was that exclusive meant that EA would promote 3Dfx on their games and no other chip maker. Didn't imply that EA games wouldn't be incompatible.

P.S. Off topic. I your pursuit of the (may I call it) the financial model holy grail...Did you consider overall short positions in the market? I've noticed in a rather unscientific manner that it seems that on individual stocks there is increased volatility when large short positions exists; there seems to be at the moment a lot of short positions across many equities; the market in general has been rather volatile over the last few months. Rhetorically...when the market recovers will it recover dramatically and rapidly in a style that we saw on Tuesday? Are overall short positions, as a percentage of the equities predictive of movements in the market or rates of change?
