It still in't out. It is not very much different from the G400MAX though
(it isn't the G800).

If the G400 is too slow, the Voodoo 5 drivers arent out yet (though they
should be soon), it only leaves Nvidia really.

Sadly I have to admit I just got a GeForce2 64MB and it really is very fast.
The drivers arent quite stable yet: it freezes the display occasionally
(but without locking the machine). Once it is running it seems stable.
I would much prefer open source. I cant find anywhere to ask technical
questions even about the drivers. They dont even supply header files.
People dont have to support Linux users if they just release the code.
