I'll retype the message and see if it works on this thread.  It was going to
go on the next thread about id Software but I kept getting an error message
saying a line was too long.  I changed my message to one word per line and
it still didn't work, so it must mean the subject line.  I had other
messages on that thread but can't post any more.  I think that is because I
updated my ISP's software and they probably have new rules about the size of
the header.  Well, here it is, word for word:

Yeah, even though some may think I am trolling around for 3dfx, I want to
check out the TNT-2 also.  I just hope it is around the same price of the
Voodoo 3 3000 or less.  Although its performance isn't as good as the V3, it
is still beyond the capabilities of my vision on current games, and since it
has more features, it will probably be the better choice for upcoming games.
I'm really starting to rethink my stance on this issue, because although
performance is my number one concern, the TNT-2 does good enough on current
games.  I can't perceive the difference between it and the V3, and upcoming
games will probably look like shit on 3dfx cards, although current ones
certainly don't. ( Am I repeating myself?)  If anyone has any idea what
MONTH the TNT-2 will be released, please post it.
