I think we should get rid of April Fools; it causes too much chaos. Either that or it should be a holiday.

I miss having a Matrox card. It's really bad. At work I have a 6600 AGP card displaying through a DVI connector (so it's nice and crisp). Now I also have a laptop with a 6600 PCIx and a 1680x1050 screen, which is also very crisp. Then when I use my desktop computer (6800 GT) then it looks very blurry to me. The Parhelia, even on a CRT, looks excellent. Oh well, if it weren't for them taking a year to release drivers for linux, I would have kept it...
LeechWah! Wah!
In a perfect world... spammers would get caught, go to jail, and share a cell with many men who have enlarged their penises, taken Viagra and are looking for a new relationship.

you were a bit TOO right IMO. innit that you're in bed with NV boss's wife?

I think the announcement/screen shot were fakes. The text grammar is bad. Almost reads like chinglish, but slightly better. I don't think it's frenglish, but the grammar is still bad.
Too bad. I'd like to see Matrox stage a comeback, at least on the order of 3Dlabs. I think we're down to just 2 majors (ATI and Nvidia) and 2-3 minors (3Dlabs, Matrox and a reincarnated S3?) in the video card/gpu market. STI bailed on the Kyro and BitBoys is a joke, but I did see a mobile GPU device demoed by BitBoys at this year's SIGGRAPH.
Anywho, we need more choice in the GPU market. I still pray for Matrox.Last edited by Mcollector; 15 December 2005, 13:44.You were told - Sasq

Yes, I forgot the integrated mobo chipset video makers (Intel, and I guess VIA and SiS still have versions of their North Bridges with on-board video). I also forgot Trident. I *think* Trident still makes GPUs for PC video cards. I was thinking more of GPUs for video card makers (or as *separate* GPU chips on mobos), not integrated video-on-mobo-chipset makers; can't use the latter on a separate video card.You were told - Sasq
