Radeon SE, 4.5ns DDR, 250MHz core clock...pics inside

At least this makes things a little more interesting at the high end. It could conceivably run with the GF2U and GF3 on current games. Too bad it isn't the Radeon II though... BTW, kudos Pocatello. That was damn funny.

2D Qualty: Matrox v. ?

Go with the G450. ATi and 3dfx are a small step down in 2D quality. Nvidia is right out, unless you're handy with a soldering iron.

Review of Samsung 1200NF?

I don't remember anyone reviewing the 1200NF... If you are interested I think I remember seeing a review of the 900NF, but I would have to dig around to find it again.

GeForce3 Review...WITH BENCHES...TONS OF 'EM!!

I honestly doubt the drivers are causing the "low" numbers. Remember that the GF2U has more quoted fillrate than the GF3 (1 Gpix/s vs. 800 MPix/s). In a fillrate intensive case with adequate amounts of memory bandwidth the GF2U should be faster. This case can be found at higher...

The GF2 performs the same as the GF3 in Q3 in low resolutions/16 bit color. At high resolutions and 32 bit color the GF3 kicks major arse.

Try using egrep instead, and do the following egrep "exam: |exam," filename It should work for the examples you just gave. Edit - uh oh, pipes made that string mad. There should not be a space after : in that expression.
