SANTA CLARA, Calif., Feb. 14 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ --
NVIDIA� Corporation (Nasdaq: NVDA - news) today
reported
record revenues and earnings for the fourth quarter of
fiscal 2001
and the year ended January 27, 2002. For the fourth
quarter
of fiscal 2002, revenues increased to $499.9 million,
compared
to $218.2 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal
2001, an increase

Nvidia's record earnings and memories of 3dfx
John Metcow posted Nvidia's record quarterly results and asked who had contributed. Most had bought GeForce cards or an Xbox, while Voodoo5 owners defended their cards and noted community drivers kept them running. The thread wandered into Amiga and Atari ST nostalgia.

Automated summary.
Nope, but I will be contributing to next quarter's results with a GeForce 4
and an Xbox...

Yes
I bought a GF3, and got one for work as well.
Why d'you ask?
You're surely not suggesting that it's immoral of them to be making such a
profit? They name their price -it's down the customer to decide if it's too
high or not.

in fact it is good news
for NVIDIA to continue churning out class leading
solutions , they need resources
Microsoft ACTUALLY did give them a bundle of money
to do the XBOX solution...
when Nvidia annouced that they would enter 3D graphics
back in the old days, I knew 3DFX would not stand a
chance against
a big semiconductor firm like them
and true enough, 3DFX is history

I can guarantee you that GM makes more money on every SUV they sell than
Ferrari does on each 550, 360, etc. that THEY sell. The reason Ferraris
are expensive is that they are made from very high quality (and high
cost) materials by expert craftsmen. SUVs are expensive because everybody
wants one.

War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things: Much
worse is the decayed and degraded state of moral and

nothing he cares more about than his own personal safety - is
a miserable creature who has no chance of being free, unless
made and kept so by the exertions and blood of men better
than himself.

3Dfx got a fair amount of my money too:
3 Voodoo 2's (the original, then a replacement after I killed it, then a
second for SLI)
1 Voodoo 3 (replacing the SLI'd Voodoo 2's)
But the last payment went to nVidia for my GF2 Ultra. (The PII 333 with the
Voodoo 3 has been retired to my parents).

As in a voodoo 5 5500? According to the medal of honour read-me - none of
the voodoo series can render the visuals in that game properly....
personally I wouldn't have paid *any* money for a card that can't run
current releases and has no driver or support of any sort (they just ceased
all that)
Who says I'm playing Medal of Honor? So far every game I have runs fine
including newer titles such as Rogue Spear-Black Thorn, Ghost Recon and Sub
Command. Not to mention all my flight sims look and work just fine.

3dfx got my money for the Voodoo1, V2, and V5. No complaints from the
product angle. I do have a complaint about 3dfx's lies & mismanagement
which cost me $10k US dollars on their stock. 3dfx said,
(paraphrasing, opinion) "Everything's OK. Rampage is almost ready.
Voodoo5 sales are beyond expectations. Sell out to NVDA? No plans at
all...everything's just peachy. Our credit is good. Gigapixel tech is
awesome. OEM deals, just around the corner. We are winning the
lawsuit." 3dfx's ex-management makes Enron look positively honest and
forthcoming in comparison. Anyone else lose a bundle on 3dfx AND
Enron? I'm much angrier at Leupp than I am at Lay, for some reason.
They should both share a cell with Big Horny Bubba for a long time
IMHO. Call it a long-term Viagra test program.
When NVDA went IPO, I *laughed* like crazy at the IPO stock price. I
think it was higher than 3dfx's stock value at the time and I thought
that was ludicrous. Even now looking back I don't fully understand
how the TNT1/2 were so successful in the OEM market over the Voodoo3
and Velocity line. 32-bit color was not a *usable* feature for games
at the time, same with texture size. And, 3dfx had Glide support,
critical for many existing games. Broad compatability should have
won, or at least competed with, unusable marketing checkboxes. But V3
was almost totally shut out of OEMs! I still play games that require
Glide support, I dunno how people do without it. Voodoo4 & 5 were
inexcusably late ("we broke the tools" BS), and lacked the T&L
marketing checkbox, sealing whatever fate 3dfx might have had. "3dfx
you bastards, you killed Rampage!"

I never said you were personally playing it - I just pointed out that the
voodoo series are unable to display the game correctly - and it is a current
game.
Then it seems I'm all set for what I have, and don't have any complaints for

In a word?... Marketing.
OEM accounts for the lion's share of hardware component sales, and
business represents the lion's share of PC/desktop distribution.
In the corporate IT world, perception and reputation are major
factors. Technically, the key difference during the critical
period when those reputations and perceptions were established was
that the nVidia products were full capability solutions, as
opposed to the offerings from 3Dfx which were entertainment
"adjuncts". nVidia maintained more of an "office" image... at
least until they were well established in that channel. 3Dfx,
OTOH, marketed themselves first and foremost as a gaming
solution... and that eventually bit them in the ass.
Those who followed the fortunes of IBM, Apple and Commodore during
the 80s will, I'm sure, recognize this pattern.

Wrong. Yes the readme says that, but if you spend $7.95 for the Metabyte Wicked
GL drivers and copy the Opengl32.dll file into the MOHAA file, it will run just
fine. At least it does on my PIII 550.

The fix for that game is very simple, so simple in fact that EA could easily
have implemented it in the game with a few minutes extra work. All you have
to do is take the wicked3D gl .dll and add an extension to the shortcut to
run the game using the opengl32.dll. Problem solved, all movies play and all
graphical erros solved.

There is a thriving community creating drivers for the Voodoo cards still,
including the X3DFX guys, and the cards will be around for some years to
come. There isn't a card on the market yet that can do FSAA better than hte
V5... When the GF4 hits the streets we may see some competition, but the GF4
is going to be using 3DFX designs and tech....

Well, I certainly did. Nvidia has provided me with a notebook which gives
