A dream machine for gamers? Silicon Graphics demonstrated an Intel Pentium II Windows NT 3D workkstation with a 17.3 inch flat panel display for under $4,000 at Comdex last week. " "Amazing," said Gates, after watching the product do a live, 30-frames-per-second video feed of the keynote inside a rotating 3D CAD image. The Comdex keynote crowd of several thousand people applauded wildly during the demonstration." For more information see techweb.com
