The Yahoo board had some interesting info for a change:

Has anyone read the latest CGW (Computer Graphics World) trade publication. Suggest you do and look for Dynamic Pictures in the new product announcement section!! Next week the biggest US computer graphics tradeshow (Siggraph'98) will be held in Orlando. This will be the place for TDDDF and its competitors to make any major announcements.

I looked up CGW and found the above mentioned new product announcement. Here is the text:

Oxygenated Boards.

Based on the RPM 3D graphics chip, the Oxygen series from Dynamic Pictures (Booth #2401) is a scaleable, modular product line for accelerated shading, texture mapping, anti-aliasing and transparency while leveraging PowerThreads technology for mutithreaded OpenGL. The price starts at less than $1000.

This was the Siggraph issue of CGW probably delivered a week before the show.

I think we are going to be hearing some very positive news at Siggraph regarding this new board. If they can show some OEM wins based on this board or the GMX, we will head north quicker than we think today.

I always thought that the best news would always be reserved to be announced at Siggraph.

Good luck,
