Hey Papa, i guess you wont be buying Diamond then? <g>
Seriously, since Creative is on the verge of shipping their V2 cards
(or so they want us to belive) Will the lucky sods here that do get CL
cards please post your experiance with it, I'm very interested in OGL
performence (as meny of you probably do also)
Specially does V2 need an OGL mini library to run or does it support
OGL on chip?
Thanks
