The voodoo that you do so well.

Everyone gets a little nostalgic around the holidays and the folks down at 3DFX Zone are no exception, coming out with a new video driver to support Voodoo3 and a host of other newer cards on Windows 2000 and XP 32 & 64-bit Operating Systems.

For those reluctant to throw their Voodoo cards into the dustbin of history, and even more reluctant to use Vista, this new driver is something of a ghost of Christmas past, spreading nostalgic cheer to one and all.

The updated driver package for 3dfx accelerators is based on a unified architecture, so it will work for a plethora of 3dfx GPUs including the Voodoo3 2000, Voodoo3 3000 and Voodoo3 3500 cards.

It will also work for all 3dfx VSA-100 products; Voodoo4 4500, Voodoo5 5500 and Voodoo5 6000 cards.

 This just feels like a boring history lesson to me.
