There was talk that the Hombre graphics chipset would have also been available as an add-in PCI card, possibly even compatible with bog-standard Pentium PCs. If that had happened... Commodore could have been the first company ever to have released a proper 3D accelerator, years before 3Dfx or Nvidia hit the scene with their offerings.

Frankly, this would have been a worthwhile pivot getting into 3D accelerators if the Amiga gambit wouldn't have paid off in the long run.
