Re: "Few people outside of Intel believe that Intel Brand franchise is nearly a strong as Howard High's perception."

This guy is obviously completely ignorant.

Look how fast the 3D video card market is abandoning 3DFx after its earlier infatuation with 3DFx's technology.

Using 3DFx to support your argument was a pretty bad choice, Kevin.

The reason that 3DFx is being abandoned is because they bought STB. 3DFx no longer supplies chipsets to other video card manufacturers.

Therefore, their previous backers (Diamond, Creative Labs, etc.) have thrown their weight behind Nvidia.
