Well, the word middlemen is not the right one for board makers. 3Dfx
produces
chip sets, they don't do the boards. So you don't want to pay Diamond or
Creative for producing the boards? Hmm, where do we plug those chips
from
3Dfx?? ;^)

BTW, I probably will rethink my decision to buy the next Voodoo board
from
the "jewel company"...
