Mistakes or things they didn't have total control over and have since corrected the situation. In response to Obewon's mistake list. 1)Voodoo Rush - yes this was a mistake that I mentioned but took lesson real well and created what is now the best 2D in the land. 2&3) Stuffing channels and boardmakers with V2's. 3Dfx was caught between a successful product but not having real control over retail markets. They might have made some small mis-judgements but reacted by buying STB and getting complete control (Forget the Fab issue for now:). Seems to have gotten off to a good start, lets see if they follow through. 4)Well - missing a date by a month or two in this industry is standard:) But really - How exactly is this a "mangament" mistake? 5)OEM Issue - By all acounts they are on track to fullfil their quest for geater OEM penetration. Lets just wait and see if they can't fill the demand. Casey "Just an opinion" K
