Hi, >>From what I've seen on this list there's a lot of comments/problems with > nvidia graphics cards.... if I'm looking to buy a machine, should I avoid I've never had any problems with nVidia cards and I have been extremely satisfied with them in both Windows and Linux (Red Hat 7, 9 and FC1). When I purchased a notebook from Dell I made sure I picked the nVidia video card in it due to nVidia's great Linux support. I wouldn't buy other than nVidia. Just my opinion... -- Regards, +-----------------------------+---------------------------------+ | Peter Kiem .^. | E-Mail : <zordah@xxxxxxxxxx> | | Zordah IT /V\ | Mobile : +61 0414 724 766 | | IT Consultancy & /( )\ | WWW : www.zordah.net | | Internet Services ^^-^^ | ICQ : "Zordah" 866661 | +-----------------------------+---------------------------------+ My current spamtrap address is est1203@xxxxxxxxxx
