Hi Jerry
I have had a Matrox Imp+ for about 3 months now. The Imp+ board is great for
windows AutoCAD Release 12. But I've had trouble using it with 3D Studio V4.
I spoke with some at VIBRANT technologies on 2/9/95 and he assured me that a
new 3ds v4 inline driver will be posted by 2/18/95. This is supposed to solve
the current driver problems. The matrox board has very poor DOS/VESA
performance, so if you replay flics or use animator pro I woundn't recomend
this board. In closing, even though this board can do real time shaded 3d
rotation, "It is not supported in 3D Studio". I have a n ATI Graphics Pro Turbo
(4meg) in my home machine and it works great.
