Chip, regarding the Unreal data.....I KNEW IT!!! The original post from Epic was that DX6 was as efficient to write to as glide- both about 1600 lines. Now the truth is out: double it! Of course this wouldn't be a problem if they didn't have to worry about bugs, and workarounds for cards which don't support all features....DUH!! I was a little surprised when the original post came out, but this latest makes me feel a little better. I knew MSFT couldn't have devised such an ingenious API that could support such a broad range of hardware so easily....

Mr. Chip, I believe you left out an important point in your CGW mag analysis (going from memory here). In a STRONG showing of loyalty (and fact :) CREAF, in their comparison/price advertisement, rates TNT as a "good choice" while Banhsee is an optimal choice! CREAF is suggesting Banshee and V2 over TNT for games! Yay CREAF. Think I'll pick up some more CREAF tomorrow as a thanks (and in hopes of good earnings). PS. My STBI has brought in some nice gains since last week. Still, I've been banging my head about the 8 buck stop thing...
