How much video card does an eCS user need? Not a challenge-- an inquiry.


Assume web browsing, 1600 x 1200, and desire to watch movies, but not

I'm kinda partial to ATI cards. I have e few Radeon 9200se which are
4/8x AGP. I see www.geeks.com has quite a few ATI cards (not the
above). It seems the scitech drivers support most pretty well.
