Would you be kind enough to direct us with the "correct sources?"

Unforniatly "They" cannot provide their correct sources since they are beta testers of Drivers and they are covered by a NDA (better known as NO DAMN ANSWERS when it comes to future products). From what I understand Matrox does share upcoming product info with them, but they can't talk about it because of the NDA .

Officially we're just driver testers, unofficially we find many other problems and provide fixes or at least learn the source of the problem(s)... normally this happens before the cards hit the market.

As for the Bitboys question

Hi David,

No relation between Matrox and Bitboys. Matrox has been a pioneer of the bump mapping technology, which is developed by one of our team members back in mid 90's. We are working hard to get our design to hardware, but we have decided not to talk about time schedules. Old demo is not out there any more, sorry.

Thanks for the encouragement, we have not given up!

What makes you think Matrox will answer a bunch of BB questions?

[Tempest]

I think that Amiga Blitter's mail was from BitBoys..?
I've heard this "no connection between Matrox and BB other than the development of bump mapping" thing so many times from different people at the BitBoys that I believe it. We Finnish people do not make good politicians, so if they say there's no connection then...there is none.
