I was all set to go update my graphics with the Monster board aka 'Pure3d' by Canopus that you've been talking about. Unfortunately, time has moved on, and my local Fry's does not have this any more. What they do have is a Canopus package called 'True3D', but it appears to have yet another graphics chip on it, the Rendition by Verite. Any comments on its use in a Mesa application? It appears to be an all-in-one board, priced at $159 so it's cheeeeep, and even includes shutter-glasses. The Pure3D looked especially good, as S-Video will give me good videotape output for the ad market, and I like the ability to keep a normal monitor as well as the 3D display screen. That's what I need. Pointers on a good place to buy it? Oh well. I did end up with a pair of SCSI 3.2G drives to store my graphics on... :) -- oooOOO O O O o * * * * * * o ___ _________ _________ ________ _________ _________ ___==_ V_=_=_DW ===--- Don Wilde [don@PartsNow.com] [http://www.PartsNow.com ] /oo0000oo-oo--oo-ooo---ooo-ooo---ooo-ooo--ooo-ooo---ooo-ooo---ooo-oo--oo
