ATI should "quit" the high-end video card market completely. And focus on making better drivers, more polished products, and better website!#%#$^.

Now damn, there's about all you needed to say. That pretty much sums up nVidia vs. 3dfx vs. all others. :)

Pimpstick, heres one tip for you since I'm feeling generous - when someone impersonates someone, don't you think they'd try and get the mannerisms and Styles similar?

"Alexis Lethal" doesn't Seem to insult anyone. "Alexis Lethel" does, and thats a spin on MY name. Do the math.

Thanks!

I do wonder whether nVidia has just been in the right place at the right time.

[We get all up in on 3dfx for using the same core for the Voodoo line - but what was the TNT2 Ultra? Eh?]
