Not necessarily...  Im purchasing the Stealth II S220.  N2 is the
primary game on my system. (not including games like SimCity 2000 and
3000 when its released soon).  I dont have enough time to get ***ed
to other games.... my wife nags me now about the time I spend on the
computer for my web page and N2. I guess thats why I post messages etc
from my office at work =)   Need to create time somewhere *laugh*

My god,I *HATE* that saying.Ive never heard any 3D card owners but 3Dfx owners
 say that.(Im not bashing you guys but mailing the company's asking for 3D
 support and being nice Would be a better approach than not buying the
 game.Other wise you'll have to wait for a patch.)

Are they going to listen to some ideas from the users? A more realistic AI
would be a great improvement on an already "good" simulation.

As you can tell Iam a newbie to Sim raceing and have not got all the
terms and ins and out..
Also Iam not very computer smart, I dont have alot of indepth
knowledge.

Ive been reading ALOT about this 3dfx and Rendition card post.
They are talking about sound cards. Is a special card?
I have a  150 Pentium  2 gig     STB Lightspeed 128bit/2MB MDRAM
Ensoniq Vivo Sound Card.
Am I on the low end of the Video/ Sound Card .
I have very good graphics and sound, or at least I think I  do.
Sorta give me a  lesson on this if/when you have  some time

Thanking you in advance.

I agreee completely, However, having just baught N2 (I'm only a poor uni
student after all! :) I think N2 is one of the best non-3dfx games
around - I also only have a 3dfx card, and while I really like it I am
not going to go out and buy a couple hundred dollar rendition card just
for N2.  I think many other people also feel this way and unless
software developers start getting into redition big time, I don't think
it will live long.... I would like to see a 3dfx patch/version of nascar
though...
