Are there any comparison charts (benchmark stats are really what I'm after) that compare a GeForce 2 MX to today's cards? The reason I ask is that I'd like to upgrade soon, and I want to see what kind of a performance jump I would get going to any of today's cards. Any pointers or links would be great!

tomshardware did a roundup several months ago with a huge lineup of cards dating back to the TNT I believe. You'd see a marked improvement in games by upgrading now, assuming your CPU is also quick.

I went from a GF2 GTS to a Ti4200 that clocks close to a 4600. I was able to run most games at higher resolutions with the same framerate, but overall it took a cpu/mb/ram upgrade to get the most out of it. I was running a tbird @ 1266, now a tbred @ 2266.
