Radeon 7500 & 8500?

Can someone clue me in on the differences between the Radeon 7500 and Radeon 8500?

Thanks,

SunnyD
 
The Radeon 7500's a souped up old school Radeon/DX7 card. The 8500 is based on the new R200 chip and is fully DX8 compliant with pixel and vertex shaders.
 
Okay, so the 7500 is a 7000-series card (same as the 7000 & 7200, but faster).

My reason for asking is I'm looking at getting one of the All-In-Wonders and was thinking I was going to get the 8500DV, but then I saw the 7500 AIW was just released at less than half the price. I'm an avid gamer tho, so I'd probably want to sink the moolah into the 8500DV still.

Thanks much!
