Honestly, ATI Radeon is kinda on my bad side. Seems that PCI will work ok. AGP won't run at all on my system. When I say PCI works ok, still can't use any Mozilla/Netscape-based browsers ... well, you can, but backgrounds won't show up on web pages, colors don't show up correctly ... or at all ... Just a pain in the ass to get running on my system(s)

Of course, things may have improved within the last 8 or nine months, and they may have found a way around these bugs ... haven't really checked, or cared too. I'm kinda stubborn like that, if it works, I don't try to refix it. As long as I can look at true color porn at resolution of 1024 by 786 or higher, I'm pretty happy with a vid card. (BTW, still have like an $80 (somewhere around there) AGP card that I used only long enough to realize that it wouldn't work on my system if anybody wants it for a low price).

Cheers,
---Dax
