I found the FX5200 is still supported, which is fanless and > PCI, but costs $60.- That's more than double the MX4000. Any GeForce 4 or derived cards from that chipset has been deprecated by nVidia a while ago. The only reason you see these cards around still is "back stock". Many card manufacturers have had to dump these chipsets. Evidence is the price. I personally have been hit by this 3 times now. I have NV11, NV15 and NV17 chipset... Lotsa fun. FX5200's chipset is the bottom set now. Anyway, it you are going to start complaining about this, start looking at the OpenDesktop nVidia driver (not sure of the name, Rendition?). Good Luck. -- greg@gregfolkert.net Novell's Directory Services is a competitive product to Microsoft's Active Directory in much the same way that the Saturn V is a competitive product to those dinky little model rockets that kids light off down at the playfield. -- Thane Walkup
