It should also be noted that the CyberVisionPPC, in spite of being
sold as a "workstation-class" 3D accelerator, looses big time in fill
rate. The Voodoo I will probably be faster, and anything else, like
G400, Riva TNT (even the 1), Savage3D/4/2000, you name it, will be
faster...
What we need in the near future (and that is three month MAX) is new
hardware, preferably a G3/3D card combo...
