Yup. But I'm not very impressed with the current VCard technology. They can put a Gig of memory on them. But it's not going to really do much for handeling large polygon meshes. There have been cards on the market for several years to help handle the math calculations needed for dealing with large 3D modles. SGI machines were the first to use that kind of thing. But it hasn't really grown much for the hobbyist PC user. I remember being somewhat of a rare person making 3D models. It seems like everyone is doing it these days. So I'm hoping that will spur on harware developers to try there hand at selling us cheap tools. Wouldn't it be great to pop a $200.00 card into your PC and suddenly be able to animate ten 20meg. figures in real time? It's going to happen some day. I just hope I'm alive to take advantage of it.
