Which ATI cards in particular have good support. I really fancy one (they've
always beenway more reliable thatn nVidia)

I heard the radeon was good, but its a bit expensive. What about the old rage
128's or expert [at] work/play 98 or 2000?

Also, which matrox cards? Is it mainly the G400 that works?

Cheers,

Craig
