ATI... that's it. Great memory.

They had the top dog gamernvideo cards and all the IT geeks just thought CAD/CAM and gaming are the same. Good for gaming good for our programmers.

Back then, if you weren't running a Matrox video card, you were having issues. The other big player... at the time had piss poor OpenGL implementation.

That's what brought me to eMC.
I'd just spent a fortune on an ATI card and was having problems.
I joined eMC looking for help.
At some point I ended up with a Matrox Mystic which ran well.

This is true
I bought V7 back in 1998 (?)
I had been using TechSoft aka ProCad and I remember calling my Mastercam dealer to bitch about the poor graphics

These units should be called mist re-locators. They don't fucking work. But hey! you don't have to clean the filter! You only gotta replace the little tungsten wires at $25/piece....and the fucking thing still just takes the mist out of the machine and spreads it into the shop.

Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

PS - We have had air quality engineering come on site several times. They can't get the fucking things to work either.

The user interface is the most important issue for new customers.
