Once their revenu goes back up they will release it. They must be in a pretty bad slum though.

Could revised Parhelia be modified to use DDRII?

And how exactly will the graphics division have their revenues go up? This rumored 2D card?
Pitou is dead. They (reportedly) have a taped out design with nobody to test it, and nobody to code for it. Probably not any customers either after the banding and lower clock speeds, and Matrox's <B>sleazy</B> way of handling these things.
$100 extra to MURC if I ever find another Matrox card worth buying.Gigabyte P35-DS3L with a Q6600, 2GB Kingston HyperX (after *3* bad pairs of Crucial Ballistix 1066), Galaxy 8800GT 512MB, SB X-Fi, some drives, and a Dell 2005fpw. Running WinXP.

If Nv is going to debut the GFFX at $500 and two months later in april announce a lower perforing part I believe there's no reason for ATI to drop prices on the 9700Pro until it gets some serious competition in it's own price segment.
Offcourse the Geforce might very well be riding on it's brand, many Joe average recognise Geforce but have never heard off any Radeon. Almost like the Athlon/Pentium situation where Intel can charge a lot more only because you get an Intel Inside sticker.

Of course it's just your opinion, but it's not correct. The revision of parhelia is done. They can release it any time, but it won't matter much if they kill off the people who write the software and support it. They seem to be more intent on releasing another low dollar card right now, and Pitou is officially canned.

Do you have any idea if they will bring out a revised Parhelia (without the banding) ?
I was hoping to be able to buy such a card, but the way things look now, I fear that I might have to opt for my first non-matrox card in ... 7-8 years !

They should drop prices on their current P's. Something like 20% should do. It's better to lose a bit and reinvest whatever fond you could scavenge than lose everything just because you stil think your damn card is worth that price.Let those who want to be simple, be simple.
