And ? As long as nVidia refuses to release full specs for their cards (and the lately released beta glx driver for XFree86 4.0 is mostly a binary only driver), I'll wait for ATI or Matrox to come up with a competing product.
My personal favourite is Matrox, as the drivers (both framebuffer and X) are the best you can get under Linux. Hopefully they'll come up with a competitor soon. That aside, I guess I'll *never* spend $300 or more for a video card. But then again I'm no hard core gamer either :-) I'll rather spend my free time with something else ;-)
I like Matrox, but 3DFX has been working with the Linux community, playing nice. :) They'll have a new card out shortly called the Voodoo5 6000, if I remember correctly. I has 4 350Mhz processors and 128MB. For many of us, this would be over kill for sure, but at least it will be supported under Linux. My Voodoo3 3000 AGP is VERY quick and behaves well.
