I'm impressed by the Radeon's performance (and it is THE card to get if you are buying a card now) but I have mu doubts about the MAXX version.
1) I heard that the MAXX will be here in 2 1/2 to 3 months from now--around the same time as the next gen stuff.
2) I don't know about Windows 2000 support as ATi had problems with the first MAXX and Win2k because of Chip ID's or something like that.
3) I wonder how its performance will compare to the new boys in town a few months from now.
Two things is does have in its favor though:
1) It will probably show up before the Voodoo 5 6000 sees the light of day
2) After looking at its current performance, dual Radeons should kill the 6000 anyway (2 chips vs 4 for the 6000, hehe
