Perhaps if YOU had bothered  to "research" it (before speaking from
ignorance) you would find that we also printed 3dfx's response. If I was a
Diamond lover then I certainly wouldn't have bothered to preorder a 3d
Blaster Voodoo 2, now would I? We only printed what both Diamond and 3dfx
have publicly stated!

P.S> BTW, since we don't accept advertising on our site, we don't worry
about hits. Of course, if you'd bother to do your "research," you would have
known that.
