Time for some advice for me
I've been considering trading my 32 meg GF DDR card for a while now. I WON'T continue to support Nvidia until they stop lounging around on their knees at the temple of M$, and either turn out some driver support for BeOS (or atleast give Be that API information to turn out their own 3d/OGL support)
Radion cards are out because I can't deal with ATI's history of poor drivers.
I've been thinking of trading towards one of those 64meg Kyro chipset based cards.
or towards a Voodoo4/4500
anyone out there got any suggestions ?
Blame is for people who need a reason to be pissed off !

why the hell would you do that. Voodoo is dead and the 4500 is way slower than your ddr. Since you dont want rdion there nothing but nvidia out there. If you must trade go for the kyro |

see my above post about Nvidia and all the anal probing they have forced on their customers

maybe it is slower, but it can't have any worse driver support. and it'll work in all of my OS's . . where as the GF card is only 2d capable under BeOS because those bastards at Nvidia have decided to give all their suction to Bill Gates . . . and screw everybody else.

I would consider it if anybody made me an offer on one.
