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 TDFX, TDDDF and its competitors to make any major announcements.

I Hope that TDFX will announce an OEM for Banchee. Also, Compaq announced today their powerful Graphic station called PowerStorm Graphics and will Show next week at Siggraph'98.

I wonder if Compaq is using Banchee for the graphic chip, any comments?

GO TDFX

The author of the theStreet.com article is simply wrong. It was a hastily thrown together piece with little background, and a demonstrated lack of understanding of the product and/or the market.

In 5 years, when 3D will be as ubiquitous as modems, TDFX still will be at the top of the heap. And old stressed out what's-her-name, now in Real Estate, will be frantically shuffling through mounds of paper looking for her mouse, still having never had her hand on a joystick.

Changing to the NYSE....

There is a discussion on the Yahoo board about trying to move the listing to the NYSE in order to end market maker manipulation...do any of you know what the requirements are...or is this just another silly idea?

Questions:
*When will 3DFX start shipping Banshee chips? (If they haven't already)
*When will we see the first boards appear on the shelves. (I want one)

I'm trying to guage when to start buying the stock again since I think the impact of the new marketing effort along with Banshee spells success.
The problem however is the punishment we must endure while V2 sales start to dwindle, inventories pile up, usual 3rd qtr market drop (IMO), etc. I think the stock won't begin to recover until around the 3rd qtr earnings release. We should see significant increases thereafter.
