this kid makes it sounds like graphics accelerators didn't exist before 1999, or that they were only ever used for games. he points out nvidia coined the term gpu, which i believe is true, but he wrongly assumed that means they didn't exist before. only the term was new. people had been playing 3D games using chips to handle the 3D math for many years before 1999 (from arcade machines to consoles to pc cards). also, he just completely fails to mention 3D hardware not intended for games in the first place, SGI says hi.⏱ 1d↩
