But some days of weeks later they added 16 bit mode support so the game would run on voodoo3 (doesn't work on voodoo2 though)
if you want to run UT2003 and GTA3 on a 3DFX card you should use amateur driver such as Amigamerlin 2.9 or 3.0

You could say the same thing about our actual muscles. But when dreaming you actually don't move at all (although you can move in other phases of sleeping)
IANAN (neurologist) but I think there's some inhibition of the motive neurones. I believe mind-controlled devices are also driven by motive neurons, and maybe they would be inhibited as well. So your mind-controlled wheel chair would stay motionless
Even you high bit-rate video9 H2434654 version 2.07beta with progressive overscan pitch noise filters and so will look like crap compared to the same thing running at 60fps on a voodoo2, under the Quake2 engine. Or you can run it in 1024x768 FSAA4X with a better card, or in HDTV resolution.
Not to mention file size. as an example, there's Quake Done Quick With A Vengence (qdqwav), a complete warlkthrough in quake1, done in 12:23 minutes. The original games weighs about 60MB, and the demo 11MB. whereas the crappy DivX file with lousy resolution weighs about 150MB.

We are talking about running the same processor, at its intended frequency, but on FSB 266 instead of 333. Buying a new MoBo to get a barton to run on FSB 333 will juts bring a few more percents of performance.

Archimedes designed a kind of big parabolic copper mirrors in order to defend Syracuse.
just read that 2nd century piece of text:P
http://www.mcs.drexel.edu/~crorres/Archimedes/Sieg e/DioCassius.html
"And when once Marcellus, the Roman general, was assaulting Syracuse by land and sea, this man [Archimedes] first by his engines drew up some merchantmen [ships], and lifting them up against the wall of Syracuse dropped them again and sent them every one to the bottom, crews and all. Again, when Marcellus removed his ships to a little distance, the old man gave all the Syracusans the power to lift stones of a waggon's size, and hurling them one at a time, to sink the ships. When Marcellus withdrew them a bow-shot thence, the old man constructed a kind of hexagonal mirror, and at an interval proportionate to to the size of the mirror, he set similar small mirrors with four edges, moving by links and by a kind of hinge, and made the glass the centre of the sun's beams--its noontide beam, whether in summer or in the dead of winter. So after that, when the beams were reflected into this, a terrible kindling of flame arose upon the ships, and he reduced them to ashes a bow-shot off. Thus by his contrivances did the old man vanquish Marcellus."
This sounds like a "method for initiating chemical reactions by focusing radiant energy", doesn't it?
I used windows 3.11 a few times during the last weeks, and it ran fast, without swapping, on my old 486SX25, 16MB RAM
it's actually easier to use than later windozes, too. And I loading it on a more recent PC (pentium) can take less that one second
too bad windows 3.1x is rather useless today. I'd rather have this old piece of crap on my PC than a gigantic OS (windoze XP) that is not satisfied with 256MB of RAM just for running the GUI
Benchmarking Quake3 at 640x480x16 Low Detail is actually a reasonable way of comparing CPUs. The Geforce 3 used here is enough for such a small load.
I managed to get nearly 140fps in such conditions (maybe it's not the same demo used), on my Duron 1300 w/ sdr PC133 and a Geforce2 MX. That's very comparable to what I see there.
(I guess that my system is bandwidth limited, and maybe the GF2MX holds it back a little bit)
Ha! everything might be used to infringe copyright laws : floppies, CD-R, paper, analog tapes...
RIAA&MPAA can sue my ass. It's able to infringe a good deal of the music industry.

Simulate a brain-like neural network , provide it with input, a.k.a. senses ( sight, hearing, touch etc.), and outputs (voice, arms, whatever you want), so that it can interact with the (virtual) world.
make the neural net (and the "body"?) evolve, thanks to some Darwinian algorithms.
Give it some basic goals (to survive in the (emulated) world) Maybe sexual reproduction should be introduced. At least you should have several individues in the world.
Run it a certain time, so hundreds of years virtually fly in the "world".
Could that lead to the self-creation of an A.I.?
Isn't this way mankind has become self-aware?
