I remember upgrading to a creative labs 3dfx voodoo banshee and it was actually stunning - I don't think there has been a generational leap quite as apparent as seeing everything before and after that upgrade. I think I had a matrox card before that and it wasn't even that old. This was on a Celeron 400... I don't think we'll see a generational leap like that in the future. Glide was nuts on games that supported it - it was night and day. It took several generations of hardware for directX to surpass openGL.
