I was thinking about getting a MSI mega 180. Mainly it was because I like the design and it comes with am radio (yes people still listen to that) :) But looking at the review heat might be an issue. So what do you guys recomend now? I really don't plan to play 3d games. More like surfing the web, practicing linux, and the ocassional book report for my daughter on it.

Would perfer that it would be:
black
easy to carry around
am radio if possible
nvidia chipset with built in video
quiet

Might be better off with a TV/FM radio card or an ATI All-In-Wonder. Ati even make a USB device you can just plug in to the USB2 that is a tv tuner. Was suppose to go on sale in Sep 04.
