I guess I better buy one of those cards, since I hear they're only about $150 now! For the record, somebody wrote a bt848 driver for BeOS, and there's a demo of the new 3DKit which allows you to drop live video and/or QuickTime movies onto the faces of a 3D object (cube, sphere, pulsing thing, book pages), and spin it around in realtime. It looks _real_ sweet playing about 6 QT movies simultaneously on a PowerMac 8500, all texture-mapped onto various 3D objects, but a live video feed is even cooler. Man, I'd love to have the source code to that! Anyway, I guess I need to buy two of those cards, one for my PC, and the other for the BeBox. :) -- Jake
