3dfx timeline

Can anyone point me in the direction of 3dfx press releases or other information in regards to 3dfx products which includes *dates*?

I'm working on a 3dfx timeline page for public viewing, anyone wish to help out? Included is shipping dates for cards by vendors, dates 3dfx vendors "slipped away" etc, etc.

Thanks! PM if you would like to help.

I found the following link some time ago. It shows the time between the announcement and release of 3dfx' products. (also other vendors like ATi and nVidia)

Yup, have a few nuggets from that link.

Here is what I have so far-

http://www.thedodgegarage.com/3dfx/timeline.htm

I need to get some dates for the Banshee release, when did Canopus release the Pure3d I and II, when did the Diamond cards hit the streets, etc. Numbers of cards and chipsets sold would be cool too.

You can get a good idea of what I'm looking for from that page, it is the results of a several hours of research last night googling the web, hitting the internet archive wayback machine and cross-checking facts.

@gdonovan,

Excellent idea  Wink, I'll go through my 3dfx folder links and see if  there's anything I can contribute.
