Good point.. hadn't thought of that but it makes perfect sense. Maybe the
video card companies should just send everyone a great 400 meg 3d
card...heh.. don't we wish...wonder if they will ever make something like
that in our lifetime... I suppose 3d would be a thing of the past at that
point...probably just have little bitty people in our box to do the stuff
for us. Freaky thought.
