You might consider that the 2D/3D Voodoo III's are showing up already, and most places will have them by month's end. The 2000's are going for about $100 and the 3000's for $140. I'd wait the week or so, myself. Check 'em out on shopper.com. Steve B. remove "edy" from address for email

When I bought my Voodoo II it cost 220 so why now is the Voodoo 3, which is even faster, selling for such a low price?! ? Adam

H'mmm, you must have paid over the odds for your Voodoo II, I purchased mine from PC-World (and they ain't cheapskates) for 179 (Diamond) one week after release date! Computer kit is coming down in price.... look at CPU's... new ones are twice the speed of its predecessor and half the cost! Good news for use users.... who's complaining? Dave Hawnt (UK)
