re: DLJ upgrade.

I can confirm that the banshee appears to be supply limited. (this
is a good thing, it means they can sell every one that they make)

I purchased my Wicked3D Vengeance (means Banshee) on 11/09/98
When I didn't receive it via UPS within a week, I called Wicked3D.
They said that they didn't have any PCI versions in stock and were
expecting 1000 more in a few days. This anecdote might speak more
to unexpected demand for PCI vs AGP versions.

BTW, Wicked3D points out on their web site that Banshee beats
Voodoo2 performance on non multi-textured games. Perhaps they
mean the AGP version beats the Voodoo2 performance or is this
a generally known fact?
