Two questions:
1. How does one flash ROM in a Voodoo card, particularly since the company
is evidently going under and offers no such support from its website?
2. Am I peeing up a string here, thinking that a faster video card will
actually render web pages fasters? I'm not a gamer; just a surfer trying to
get his money's worth from cable modem service.
(And thanks to Andrea, who's a terrific contributor to this list!)
