I believe that that picture is actually genuine, how do I know? Well look at the spelling of Millennium, it's spelt Millenium on that page and as we all know Matrox have been campaigning to officially have a "n" removed from the word millennium to reduce their advertising costs as they have to pay by the letter. The next phase of their campaign will be to have a "l" removed so they will have the Matrox Milenium.

Weren't they about to remove the letters M and U too, because of the MU [Matrox Users] annoying them so much, ending up with "Ilenim"?

Somebody do the math and tell us what kinda memory and power this card would actually need to support 128bit color! I know it would be gargantuan.Comment

It would need 32bits per colour.
32bits for Red Green Blue and Alpha 32x4=128
That could be deemed a bit much.
1024x768x128=100663296
thatx60fps=uhhhhhh=6039797760bits/s
that/1024=5898240Kb/s
that/1024=5760Mb/s
that/1024=5.625Gb/s (gigaBits i think, missed a /8 for bytes?)
I think this is wrong....?
It should be much higher than that...

Sorry for being so late, BUT
God I love em!
In response to Ant saying that he thinks that the link :
is genuine because Millennium is spelled the way Matrox likes to spell it. I have one little issue to raise with something else on the page.
When I saw the line that read :
Hardware assisted high-quality DVD playback (IDCT, motion compensation)
something about it looked fishy. Now normally ATI were the only one who did iDCT motion compensation in hardware (I may be wrong on that, don't flame me to death) and they almost always refer to iDCT with a lower case i.
I don't know however if that is the correct notation for inverse Discrite Cosine Translation or not.
Just some food for thought....
