I maybe new here to you guys, but I before I'd often visit 3dfx sites, just for a glimpse of this great classic technology.

I couldn't imagine the world without 3DFX sites still going. I don't know if FalconFly knows how much I apreciate him still keeping his site alive and with helpfull advice.

You guys don't know me to well, but I have a heart. I miss it when well respected or helpfull people leave.

And especially now, I will be much more intouch. The reason is because I can't partition my hard drive and install windows 9x. I have a SATA drive. So I bought an old Pentium 3, 450Mhz P6BX-A+ motherboard, a 16mb STB Voodoo 3 3000 AGP, 3x pc100 128mb single sided non ecc ram.

So basically I need you guys, to help guide me through this unexplored territory, and I need you guys to be my friends. In real life my aquatences drink themselves stupid, and girls look at me and make that face like he's to ugly so I better upchuck look. :sigh:
So I socialize online, as no one in my crummy city will listen. Maybe it's because it's the worst economic city in the US.

you know FalconFly if there's anything I can do to help, let me know. I can scan stuff for you, or if you want, I can make a copy of the Voodoo 1 Diamond Monster 3D cd for you. I know I'm having a hell'of'a time finding the driver CD for STB voodoo 3 3000 agp. I know the drivers section, but I always feel the most secure with the driver cd.

Well I am 100% Disapproved, so that won't get me back to a local job.

So I keep myself on the go at Home, playing Music like Sting & The Police, St.Germain, DJ-Tiesto, Bob Marley & The Whalers, Hall & Oats, all sorts of stuff, practice them on my keyboard and playing games on my PC's , sometimes I and Help at the Local PC store, helping people out of thier Computer myseries, really some clients can be n00by from time to time, when they leave we have to laugh at times lol, they say that there PC is broken, well if they just switch in the PSU it works like a Nissan Sunny with gas

But yeah as the days go on, you get used to the things that you are doing, life get's wierd, but that should make you feel like there is no other option, oh well I will survive, learn't lot in this Forum, would be a shame not to be here hehe.

For Gary, well he's been a real great man here, a Salute to him would be highly accepted. He really helped and learn't us lot of thingies and stuff. I know we would like to have Gary back as I would that would be a dream, but I think that we should be free to dream things

@ Gamm742, wow new Descent2 Levels cool can't wait to get them Wink

@ Everyone else, let's keep this place cozey and enjoyable, I've seen many forums go to waiste also, And now I'm gonna listen to some DUB

from St.Germain Wink

May The Force Be With You...Always,

Ben Kenobi.

I guess I worded it wrong or I was misunderstood.

I mean, as long as there are no odd guys coming here like "go check my incredibly advanced Linux Kernel" [size=0.1](I loved that one!)[/size], nothing can go TERRIBLY wrong here.
It's a forum about magic things, very few people are interested in this, but when they do, they're almost everytime cool people (like we, that was my point).
If Gary hadn't quit, maybe things would have gotten worse and worse, speaking about -I don't know- his relations with other members for example. Probably he tought it was better to leave and this is a sign of cleverness. We just lost the Spielberg of 3dfx, but we have other geniuses... and he might come back after all!

Gary was and always will be the Graff of 3dfx to me.

We should see it like this:

Gary has been here for quite some time, and we have learnt lots from him, we all have had our ups and downs, but that is very normal in life hehe.

We should see that as a good thing, and we shall keep this place alive with or without him. If he comes back he will do that when he feels the time is right. we shouldn't worry my friends, it's gonna be okay.

He shall be remembered as a very Important 3dfx memember and a good and loyal friend from far.

May The Force Be With You, My 3dfx Jedi Friends

Friendly regards,

Obi-Wan Kenobi. 8)

Things sure have slowed down here since he left. I find myself straying to other boards now looking for interesting 3dfx posts.

I consider myself lucky as he and I keep in touch. I spoke to him this morning on the phone. He's doing well, still collecting as I'm sure you well amagined. He sent me a pic of his most recent purchase. It came with and very large power supply 8)

I'm sure he will be updating his web page soon Grin
