[CUBE] Geforce3 VGA and DVI

[Hal]

Oh gee, so you're being just as polite. I am just getting tired of the 
commercials for the overpriced 7500 twinviews. It's also common 
knowledge that the GF3 isn't twinview. Never has been. It's also quite 
obvious that the card in the picture referenced wasn't twinview. It 
only had 1 port, a VGA.

If my tone was testy, that I'll apologize for, but being told to "butt 
out" is a bit overkill.
