What the Murc think about this...

It is time.

AaAhHh... THE bunny! Run bunny run! :this is lame:

But it never gets lamer than this silly thread.

Same BS over and over again all these years... this is so damn annoying... personally its even more annoying than spamming the forums... *sigh*

btw IIRC MURC is a private forum. If you want to complain/give ideas, it may be more wise to do it in the MGA forum, or call their marketing/sales...

The only idiot i see in this thread is not Amiga Blitter. I think the idea should be even expanded. We should, like the guy who collects AOL CDs, start collecting m3ds. Once we got a fair amount (a few thousand) we should unload them in front of Matrox HQ. That should teach them a lesson!

Moving a million M3D is going to be a PITA, unless you stealthily buy them off shopmatrox and have them shipped to a fake address that just happens to be real and also located at M's HQ...

The M3Ds were good if not great. I remember running Unreal I on one of the things when the game first came out. It was as smooth as the voodoos. Now if we could dump 1 million parhelias with banding on their doorstep. Now that would be good!

No the m3ds were far from great.

If you can get 1 million people to dump their banding parhelias in front of Matrox HQ be my guest!

I liked the m3d, just nothing supported it, so I only owned mine for a week. Then I got a Canopus Pure3D. That was a badass card at the time (had 6mb of ram, rather than the standard voodoo 1 boards at the time that had 4mb.) I still have that card in fact (Not that I use it, though I was considering just building a Win95 machine out of some old parts just so I could connect my steering wheel to it and play Interstate '76, which won't work in XP, damn the bad luck....)

I guess I'm just partial to the cute little buggers. You could even remove the backplate and put them in a shared slot with just about any ISA card. Sniff.

Thank you thop

Is m3d = Mystique? I really loved this card (unreal and HL performed good).

I will never dump my wonderful parhelia in front of Matrox HQ!!

No, it's not a mystique, it was a 3D add-on card based on the Rendition Vérité, if memory serves right.

[Kruzin]

It was based on the PowerVR chip.

Oh OK

Which also happened to be fabbed by NEC, which also fabbed the G-series chips in that era (all G-series chips?).

Coincidence?

PVR couldn't do coloured lighting iirc, V1 could. Hence Q2 was muchest lovelier with a Voodoo..
