  • Matrox you better actually test extensively with a game

    Matrox,
    Before you or a game/software maker prints the videos cards it is compatible with, make sure that it is tested, fully, and expensivley before it is printed on the game/Matrox/and assoicated web sites advertising which video cards it ***WORKS****** with! Do not let software/game/hardware manufacturers get away with or encourage them to state in any way shape or form that it is comapible/works with a Matrox video card it has problem working with. I know I and many other people get burned with these mistruths/fibs/lies/mistatements/and stretching of the truth. It may work sometime in the future with maybe a patch ***Is Not The SAME*************** as it does work with. I know it does not have to work perfectly, but work and does not work, or if you play with it and adjust it, and shake a dead chicken at it does not cut it!

    You are living in a Dream Land, my friend. I realize that in your Utopia, all we would have to do is just plug in a video card, and everything would just work, but the reality of the matter is that is just not happening with anything PC related---PERIOD.
