Larry, Silicon Reality Technology Give me a little help here! NOT how great this chip is because really I wouldn't know or care what you are talking about! It is a possible investment, as are all small start ups. I can not find this company listed on any major exchange or the otc:bb, I can not find this company as a investment with any VC firm that I follow and there site is not up and running www.sireal.com Thanks JR

Re: Taz As for the name, I kind of like it. Taz-3D, it has a nice ring. Memorable as well. Not as good as "Voodoo" but better than "RIVA 128". Offer a high quality 32-bit true color 3-D Nobody gives a shhh about true color from a 3D engine. 16 bpp is about all you need in that universe. For now. Offer super high resolution (1600x1200) Another capability in high demand. Not. I can count the number of consumer-level 1600x1200 capable monitors out there on one hand. Using only thumbs. Offer complete polygon and texture parameter setup with rasterization I'm no 3D engineer but this seems like nothing special in today's 3D chip universe ... correct me if I'm wrong. Offer single-pass, perspective-correct, tri-linear MIP mapping with automatic level of detail Better, but still nothing Voodoo2 can do, and has been doing for months ... Incorporate perspective-correct, per pixel fog with three fog tables Voodoo fog looks pretty damn good to me. This isn't where the work needs to be done. God bless, PX
