Elminster, you said:

<<Everyone that I know is getting rid of the Voodoo2's and going Riva TNT.>>

Thankfully everyone you know isn't the buying public. PCData clearly shows Voodoo2 and Banshee outselling TNT.

<<I don't know if the proprietary GLIDE API will win anymore as Microsoft includes new 3D effects in DX6.>>

Good point. Too bad you can't run DX6 on Voodoo2 or Banshee...right?

I'm not trying to make this into a "kick the ol' wizard" flame, but Deer Hunter and ATI has shown us it's better to watch the shelves rather than the benchmarks/ratings if you're looking for the better business model in this industry.
