Vodoo2's are cheap, but comparatively, so is the vodoo3 line. To get the
performance of the vodoo3's you need 2 vodoo2's, which fills up your
computer real fast. Get a vodoo3 3000 (preferably AGP) You won't be
disappointed. 

Somedays I think I should have gotten a Vodoo3 over my TNT2. Then I
consider how often I really play anything in the Quake series. In the
end, I guess I'll stand by my decision. Eventually nVidia promises
better support, and eventually there will be 3D accelerated games I want
to play under linux. Seems like a workable equation to me.
