You are right. I will have to lower Derrick into the punishment pit for a full 24 hours because of this oversight.
 
You better, make sure there are hungry piranha in there too... Oh and some venomous bees, or just trout with lazers on their head.

I was thinking the same thing. It had two Rage 128 Pro processors, and I lusted after it at the time.

You COULD punish him by confiscating all of his gaming hardware for a week.... :D

Yeah I lusted after it too, then I got the Voodoo 3500 and was like this will do, and yeah I never actually touched ATI again for a good couple of years.
 
Speaking of which, there were 4 VSA100 processors on a Voodoo 5 6000, weren't there?

Never had the pleasure of owning 3dfx hardware. They were on their last legs by the time I started earning an income, at which time I picked up a Geforce 2MX.
 
My first 3D card was a Voodoo 2 with a whopping 8MB of VRAM. I couldn't afford the "high-end" 12MB version. Still, it creamed Unreal.
 
I think there was a 4 processor Voodoo according to tests it creamed the Geforce 2, but it didn't come to market. My first 3D card was actually more of a decelerator then anything it was a 4 meg ATI Rage 3D, Tomb Raider looked good but man it didn't play so good.
