I've got some good news. A friend of mine just purchased a 450 Mhz Pentium II Dell machine with a Riva TNT. He is returning the Riva TNT and is on his way to CompUSA to pick up a Banshee card. The reason? Apparently Need for Speed III sucks in Direct3D mode relative to Glide. He got a poor frame rate and display quality relative to what I demonstrated on my Voodoo2.

I think it's down due to the usual suspect. "Sell on the news" Now that Comdex is over and the announcements are out some folks are taking profit. I am not worrying about it. I don't think the drop is due to TNT vs. V3. JMO, JF
