I'm considering a dual purpose AGP video card.
First, I'll use it in a dual monitor setup in a linux box. Later, I may use it in a HTPC. Hopefully, it will produce very clear text for the linux app and be powerful enough for the HTPC. I don't know how much power an HTPC requires of a video card.
Also, I suppose I should consider a DirectX 9 but I don't know if it's needed for these uses.
Here's one deal going, as cheap is better than expensive.
VisionTek Xtasy Radeon 9250 128MB AGP for $60 - $20 MIR.
Suggestions welcome.
