Ahh S3. I made do with the Virge DX for two years before I could afford a Voodoo 1 (Canopus Pure3d). The later S3 Savage might not have done well since it had to compete with the Voodoo3 and TNT/TNT2, but it's S3TC was the shit and was hugely influential to this day (the basis for DXTC).

Very interesting! I bet many of us only knew about these cards back in the day by the magazine articles on their release.
