I recall reading that the OGC should have about the same performance as the ATI Radeon 9200. > Even most Linux users aren't going to pay more for a > slower board just because it is open or uses a clever design. If the OGC will be about the same speed as the ATI 9200, and the ATI 9200 costs about US$50-60, then the OGC had better not cost much more than $50-60. I'm thinking that BSD/Plan9/Linux/etc. users might pay a bit more, perhaps $60-75, but that's probably about the limit for most. If the OGC comes in at $200-300 it is not going to sell very many. Even $100 will be very tough sledding. _______________________________________________ Open-graphics mailing list [email protected] http://lists.duskglow.com/mailman/listinfo/open-graphics List service provided by Duskglow Consulting, LLC (www.duskglow.com)
