The issue there is, it's already DONE for verite, and not done for
3Dfx, so the suggestion to do 3Dfx only for N2/ICR2 doesn't make any
sense...

Hey, there is nothing stopping you from adding a Verite card to your
Voodoo card. I'm seriously thinking of doing this myself (I have a
Verite card now and will be adding 3DFX soon). This way, you'll have
all the bases covered and no matter what your *** preference, just
run the version that suits you! Rather simple, isn't it?

Hmmm, maybe Ford has a conflict of interest becuae they sell parts for
their cars. Even recommend that you bring them to thier dealers for
servicing. What will those bastards do next eh?

If I was looking for a game/sim that was at the top of my list I
would:
a) Just buy the thing.
b) Just buy the thing and then get the other graphics card too.

If you've got a 3DFX card right now, then you're most likely not
running with a base system. Am I right? Well, then your ninja system
will run these games smoothly anyway or you can most likely afford the
Verite card also.

Cheers to you too John.
