  I could’ve sworn that the browser was also called just Mozilla at one point, or was that just always the suite it was part of?

  I remember having a GeForce 2 as well. Yes, I was really into graphics actions that time. :) Ever since Wolfenstein 3D, or DooM, to be honest.

  Colored lighting in Unreal for the first time!

  Ohhhh! I think the Riva TNT was my first 3D accelerated graphics card!

  This is correct. I remember running Quake II in software mode with hardware effects (could that have been OpenGL already?). It ran at like 1 frames per second, because I didn’t have a 3D graphics card. Although the lighting looked lovely when you shot a rocket through a hallway.

  Whatever works for you man. Screw what anyone thinks about what you do. Do your thing.
