Re: Inspiron 8000 & Progeny install woes



hi jim,

is 3d-performance an issue for you?  i've seen comparisons (done with
the 1ghz inspiron 8000) between ati and nvidia.  the nvidia card is
significantly faster than the ati chip (+70% 3dmark 2000, up to +161% quake3,
source: c't (german computer mag) 10/2001).

greetings,

uLI
