Appian Vs STB If you've read the earlier comparisons made by Dirk Hente, you might remember that Appian has the superior software/drivers and STB pro128 has the superior hardware (128 bit)). I'm glad to hear STB is soon to announce more versatile software. If you are serious with going very high end to to CAD, I suggest you review Dirk's review of the Appian and STB cards. He has several posts dedicated to such. In finality, he arrived at the conclusion stated above. Waiting for the STB software may be what to hold out for. $1300 for a high end multimonitor card is a lot of money. What kind of programs do you need it for? STB Price list: #reply-4811393 Appian J-3: comes with either RDRAM ($~1200) or SGRAM (~$your first born.) S.W.
