Not really, I like games well enough, but rarely have time to play them.
Mostly I want to be able to play DVD's under linux, and have generally
good video for the computer (15" 1600x1200 really looks nice) At this
moment, I am leaning toward the ATi cards for the reasons mentioned. But
wanted to check on gotchas for the rest of the system.
