[ut3] NVidia buying AGEIA

[Lloyd Taylor]

Both great points.  And I got that impression from Ryan's message earlier too, so you're probably right.
I would not be disappointed if physx drivers for linux spawned from this acquisition  :)

Just 
remember, 
when 
Nvidia 
purchased 
3DFX 
it 
took 
about 
2 
years 
for 
them 
to 
ship 
any 
new 
products 
that 
merged 
3DFX 
and 
Nvidia 
technology.

That 
and 
I 
thought 
that 
Ryan 
hinted 
that 
Ageia 
wasn't 
the 
source 
of 
the 
legal 
problem.
