You can't really disrespect Matrox like that BFG

They've always had flaky drivers for 3D but the final straw was the flop that was the Parhelia.

If these prices are true we can forget that company. From the performance I have seen it should be placed around 200 bucks to compete with the 5900 NU.

For most cases this is not true. For a new company to enter an oligopoly market it's tough to bring high end products with low prices.Nvidia and ATI can do that cauz they hold the biggest share of this particular market, but not for XGI.
I think we shall wait to see how the next product will perform, everybody deserves a second change.
And if the next one competes at least to 80-90% in performance compared with the giants future products, then I'm willing to support XGI. We need a third powerful player in the game.
