Two things that I don't know if they have been addressed- 1) UltraHLE... Imaging the possibilities of a joint Nintendo / 3Dfx markteting blitz. Sure pirating is an issue, but like the Recording industry, they either have to adapt, or have the technology exist regardless of whether they make mone on it or not. agn3d.com 2) I would propose that ATI has a very solid niche with it's all-in-wonder card right now. 1 card solution with average-good performance with a TV tuner. I would love to see a voodoo 3 alternative using the STB TV part. The key for this niche is definately the single card solution. Shoot, even if they did it with a banshee part, it would still segment ATI's niche. agnhardware.com Waiting for the merger with baited breath.... Question, Right now 3Dfx can only make announcements on their chipset because of SEC regulations, correct? So even if a potential V3 card was to come out with tuner, it would have to be an STB announcement, correct?
