Am thinking about a new video card. Any pointers of relative performance of one card versus another? Have heard the Matrox Millenium family is well liked and very fast, but where/how is this quantified? http://www.xfree86.org/FAQ/index.html says: > In general, the S3 based boards have been the best supported, followed > by the ATI based cards, however that is no guarantee that any specific > board will work. Is that still the prevailing wisdom? I've seen S3-Virge-based cards dirt cheap, is there a risk with one of those? -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@hiwaay.net ===================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.
