Well I strongly object to this statement. I have a Voodoo3 2000 and I am happy that I brought it, it works fine, has no problem with Linux (3dfx was one of the first companies to support 3d acceleration for linux), no compatibility problems either as all the programs written for 3D acceleration use either openGL or Glide or DirectX which is supported extrememly well under the Voodoo chipsets. Voodoo 3 2000 is a great card.
