Cool. I'll have to try that one at work. At 20K a pop for the software
we can probably afford the $69.

Jan,
The ATI Radeon series (at least 9000 and above) is accelerated and
well supported under Linux. For $69 I got a Radeon 9000 from New Egg
online. I get 100FPS on glxgears unaccelerated, and 2000FPS accelerated.
I think the NVidea devices do outperform this little $69 card, but I
like it because it has no fan, so it makes no noise and won't overheat
when that little VGA cooling fan gets dirty in 6 months. ;-)

Why - because they are the only graphics card
manufacturer
with an accelerated 3D driver for Linux
