GAMECENTER BANSHEE PREVIEW! gamecenter.com Final Paragraph: "As Voodoo 2 prices continue to drop, it's hard to get terribly excited about Voodoo Banshee. From the start it was designed specifically to not be a Voodoo 2 killer, and it isn't. But it may end up being a compelling option for those who want a low-cost, integrated graphics card that's great for games. " And they list lack of AGP-texturing as a negative! Typical Intel-funded Gamecenter bunk! Chip coolhistory.com

Forgot to give Gateway Link: They seem to be using frames so you have to click on the Multimedia PC's box on the right to see the G series models: gateway.com One suprising aspect of Gateway's configuration is that they don't seem too worried about sticker shock $3249 or as low as $90 per month. I have to believe that Gateway knows their market, has done the research, and is confident that they will get them out the door. Joe C.

Gateway Sweeps Banshee Poll for OEM most likely to announce first! Actually had two votes :( One for Gateway and one for Compaq (my own) but since I conducted the poll and Gateway made the V2 a standard on their high end pc model, I decided to change my vote for Gateway - kinda like the counting method used in some of those one man dictatorship sort of democracies ;) Joe C.
