Damnt! I overpaid! I bought this card for 26.00 total. The other ebay cards have been bid on, but I bet I could have gotten away with paying less than 20.00 dollars total.

I also bought a slot A Athlon 800 + 128megs RAM for 26.00 total.

Too bad I didn't see formulav8's post--he has every thing I need!

Oh well...

For $20 you could have bought an ATi 9500/9600/9700/9800. I have seen all of those sell for $15-30 price range.
