A friend wants to add a better video card to her PII-400 machine.

I'm not sure how worthwhile it is for a machine that old, but it's what

she wants. The machine does not have an AGP slot. She has an

interest in linux and so ideally the card would have 3D hardware

acceleration under linux. It should be a 32 or 64MB card.

32MB is plenty, but not having an AGP slot is bad news when it comes to 
speed.
I'm pleased with my GeForce2 GTX even though I have to load a few RPM's 
for acceleration. It actually works better under Linux than it does 
under WinXP.
