Notes

We pitted the Voodoo PCI against the AGP version and tossed in the GeForce2 for no particular reason at all.

We stopped posting FSAA results higher than 1024x768 because the numbers are pretty much pointless. The numbers tend to dip into the low double digits, with 1600x1200 yielding either FSAA failures or video failures in general.
