Can you give me a good reason why I should buy a card with 8MB ?
My use of X is limited to a) Running netscape to view web pages that dont
behave under Lynx, b) Viewing some MS word documents with Star Office when
I can't find any other way of converting them and c) Running gqview / ee
/ gimp to view /edit a few images.
My ancient CL5446 card with 1MB RAM allows me to do all these with absolutely
no hassles. (And I'm sure the cheapest card available today will probably
do better than what I've got !)
