ha! ha! ha!

Pavel, you got me. Yes, the GF3 is on the list for the annual august
upgrade.

Do I think that the average IDL user will benefit from the GF3? Unless they
work with object graphics no, go buy a $30 4mb video card. If they are
serious object graphics users? For sure! I guess I put David in the
"serious object graphics user" category. (maybe that was my mistake? ;)

You do not *need* an AGP pro slot although I would recommend a hearty power
supply.
