Anybody here owners of a (3DFX) VooDoo brand card? I mean sure, the OpenGL support was truely lacking, but these cards put out 110%. I know that nVidia bought 3DFX awhile ago but only recently have a really noticed how much they screwed us over. VooDoo cards are only on the rise in cost due to not being produced anymore. You can''t get drivers from any major sites because their dead now. You can''t get customer support because 3DFX is (as we all know) wiped out. Now, I''m not Anti-Microsoft, I do think nVidia should burn for its actions. 3DFX had a good thing going, a voodoo 2 could still compete with a Geforce class videocard when using its native API...but then again, nVidia stole everything from 3DFX just like AOL with winamp and ICQ. And we all know how much everybody is fed up with AOL. I don''t know if this post has any importence, but hey, I had to let it out. :-)

IMO, nVidia cards have always outperformed 3DFX ones, so there wasn''t really anything lost here...

After careful deliberation, I have come to the conclusion that Nazrix is not cool. I am sorry for any inconvienience my previous mistake may have caused. We now return you to the original programming
