This means that there is no real need to publish promising roadmaps to keep shareholders happy. While it is unlikely that Matrox will be able to launch a Geforce 3 killer soon, there is a whole market between cheap but very slow TNT2-64 bit cards and the expensive Geforce 2 GTS/ Geforce 3 videocards. Personally I would prefer that we see more good performing (in 32 bit), but affordable videocards. The Geforce 2 MX performs hardly better than a TNT2 in 32 bit gaming, and the Geforce 3 is too expensive.</font>

People might not hear something about Matrox, but that does not mean they are sitting around twiddling their thumbs.
