what kind of games do you play?

Unless you're into glide games and flight/racing sims, go for the Radeon. I will assume you'll be using win98 for gaming and 2k for "professional" type work, so don't sweat the fact that either card is pretty slow in win2k gaming.

yap, what robo said, win2k is not the gamer os, win 98 is still the best choose for gaming

I currently running dual boot system with WinME and Win2k with a Radeon. It rocks man. I play games in WinME and surf and do work on win2k because of the stablity and the sharp 2d.
