Thanks for your iinfo.

I can purchase at OEM prices locally, which is usually cheaper than anything on
Pricewatch.

I have had no problems with nVidia's drivers. I'm less concerned with how open
their drivers are than are they available for Linux & do they work. So far I
have found nVidia support better than ATi, so I'm happy with nVidia. My current
Shuttle XPC has nForce2 with dual on-board MX440 using shared memory, which is
more than enough for my needs & functions perfectly.

If you believe that ATi has better Athlon64 support than the new nVidia A64
drivers, I'd be happy to give ATi a go. I've found both to work fine as far as
hardware goes, but have used nVidia more under Linux, but NOT A64.


Thanks,

 Brent Wood
