I live in the Dallas, TX area... Tell me where this guy lives!

Assuming it is working, I will give him $200. U.S. for it. This is all I feel a 3dfx card with this level of performance is worth.

That's what they said about the Edsel. Now look how much it's worth.....

Fred,

Genuine Beetles (depending on condition) are collector's items too and dog slow as cars.

I wouldn't want a Beetle no matter what it would cost hehehehe

[msan_msw]

Hey, it ain't how much it costs... It's how much you can sell it for down the road! :)

In that respect the V5 6000 owners have nothing to complain about, seeing how that last V5 6000 went for 1000+$

[FredSanford]

I think a guy named "Brotha" off the old AGN boards bought that one for $1000.. He spent a year and a half telling everyone how he was going to "own their cheap,shitty nvidia asses" with the V5-6K he was going to get. Months and months of,"It's comin'-and it's gonna be tough".When the 6K was cancelled, he dropped off the board amidst much flaming.
To a guy like that, it would almost be worth a grand to not have a year and a half of incessant posting negated.
