Fred,
In case you were interested in an update to the D/Vision for NT, its even more
astounding that one might expect. Apparently there will be 3 different versions
available initially. The code name for the product is Bermuda. <g> Conjures up
all kinds of interesting possibilities. But here's the unofficial version, they
intend on have a Matrox version running on an Ill Pro for the high end, a Targa
2000 for the middle and a DVPro on the low end. Yes I know hard to believe,
but and here's the kicker, their goal is hardware independence, so as new
compression boards etc. become avialable 3rd parties can write their own
drivers and plug in. Sounds like somebody else has figured out the genius of
3DS. <BG>
If it gets any wilder than this, I just can't imagine.
John
