Yes, I read the artical and I happen to agree with it. In general, VL-BUS and EISA boards will not provide enhancement for 3DS over the ISA versions. Now FLIC playing is a whole other ballgame. Anything that can reduce the overhead of transfering large blocks of pixel data to the video board will show increased performance in flic playback (like the DELL DGX!) I haven't seen the local bus version of the IIT AXGA chip yet, it may also benefit from local-bus on animator as will the Weitek P9000.
