Enterprising 3dfx staffers have already begun touting their services to potential employers through a new Web site - x3dfx.com (geddit?!?)

Set up by a trio of senior 3dfxers from the company's Belfast office - one of the company's service and manufacturing centres - the site so far contains little but contact information done up in the style of the official 3dfx site.

Reid Campbell, 3dfx Belfast's head of engineering, registered the new site last Saturday, we note, the day after 3dfx announced disastrous Q3 results and a plan to sell its technology and trademark assets to Nvidia before closing down. Reid is offering his services on the new site, along with office head Gareth McClean and administrator Christine Goodwin.

On Monday, Nvidia announced it was attempting to hire one hundred of 3dfx's key software and hardware engineers. ®
