Hi Ken,

I especially liked the part where they will start advertising. It looks like S3 is finally going to come out of the closet and admit to being a producer of graphic chips. I'd still like to see some independent reviews though. As much as I dislike that fat head from Toms Hardware, I'd be real curious what sort of reviews he gives it. Kind of a "Let Mikey try it. He hates everything." If the performance lives up to the PR fluff, I agree, $129.99 is going to be pretty hard to beat.

It's looking like the add in card vendors S3 has been working with have some tricks to add to the Savage drivers. If all the AIC wins are as good as the PR, S3 might actually start showing a profit one of these days. The announcement came late in the day, might see some action in the AM.

Regards,

Don
