As a shareholder of TDFX (I assume you are), why would you want OEMs constantly pushing on your company to deliver lower priced chips?

Competition from multiple OEM's keeps the TDFX price up (and costs down), while competition amongst OEM's keeps consumer prices down, which is good for demand.

This was only important when developers were writing to the 3dfx specific GLIDE API.

Certainly Glide will be required to utilize Rampage features. I'd like to see as many developers as possible supporting Rampage.

STB is a very prominent name is retail.

Not nearly as much so as DIMD or CREAF.
