    About as real as a pink unicorn
    Some Maelstrom players in the hexus office?

    Everyone knows pink unicorns don't exist (whatever Springing River might try to tell you...)

    Pity 3DFX didn't concentrate all resources on the 3DFX Rampage, Nvidia would of been second best to it.

    But where I wonder did they get the numbers? Plucked from thin air, or from an unreleased card?

    That's a whole lot of effort for an April Fool's joke! Made me laugh though, thanks!

    Shame its a joke, many fond memories of 3DFX. I actually still have a Voodoo 3000 running in a 1u server as its display card - been sitting in there for 10 years quite happy

    And with the hope of better drivers.
