Here's an oddity Google turned up...
Some web developer decided to show off his 1997 web development work.
Alliance Semiconductor's website circa September 1997.

Here's their dedicated ProMotion website.

Here's the root site.

I expect it's basically identical to

http://web.archive.org/web/19970707052338/htt … com/index.shtml

Only thing missing is most downloads (drivers, datasheets, etc.)

Nice, made me look into AT3D datasheet again, and this surprised me:
Proprietary techniques permit Z-buffering in as little as 8KB off screen memory, leaving more
memory for richer textures.
Tiling in local memory?
