I always thought that in order to keep demo file sizes small, game makers usually did not include such goodies as 3D acceleration. Buy the product, if you want to see it in its full glory. BTW, I love @Home. (Not a shareholder.) When I installed it, they were running some kind of special...$500 for one year including installation. (I don't subscribe to cable tv.) Joel OT -- Last night I downloaded Myth 2 - a real time strategy game that uses 3D acceleration. One comment - we need more bandwith. How's @Home working out. I digress. Second comment. Reviews say its' glide and D3D compataible. Unzipped demo and it won't run telling me I need DirectX 6.0. This is where I stopped. Anyway - game is supposed to be really good with great 3D graphics that acceleration really brings out over software. Adding this one to Diablo 2 might push some new board purchases from the strategy game crowd i.e. Starcraft, warcraft,age of empires, etc. Joe C.
