Tonight is one of those excessive posting nights... Pat, I think that we had this discussion before... regarding the 3500TV release versus the 3500 and the potential problems that they might be having with yields and management execution. Well, watching the E3 coverage... I realized something... no active cooling. Didn't all the preproduction 3500 cards have active cooling? If they are able to get viable chips that run at 183mhz without active cooling, I would doubt that yields were the issue driving the 3500TV. Am I missing something? So, if the chip yields were not the issue (Tomasi stated that they have chips running 220mhz in the lab - AGN e3 video interview), then perhaps 3dfx management did not drop the ball and has realistically evaluated and adapted to the demands of the market.... Just a thought... Jeff P.
