I ordered 2 MaxiGamer 3D2's for SLI direct from Guillemot.  Delivery was as 
promised, even over the Thanksgiving holiday.  However, the card in the first 
box I opened simply wouldn't work at all.  I also noticed that the two cards 
were not *exactly* identical, with one being a different color, i.e., brown 
instead of green, although both appeared to be electrically identical 
(different vendors?).  After three calls to Guillemot tech service (who were 
always available by phone), it was determined that the card was defective and I 
was issued an RMA for a replacement.  
 
While I'm awaiting the replacement, I'm using the other card and it is working 
just fine; big improvement over my old Righteous 3D.  The Thief demo at 1024 x 
768 is impressive and, while just a bit slower without the z-buffer, it's still 
playable, even on my ancient P200MMX.  I found some texturing problems with 
Unreal using the drivers that shipped with the card, but this was solved by 
using the current 3DFx reference drivers.
