It's a Ford/Chevy thing. I have installed many upgrades on many different
computers and I can't honestly say that one is worse than another. I do
have my own preferences, mind you, but depending on the deal,
Sonnet/Newer/XLR8/whatever...... they all have their plusses and minuses.
I do prefer the XLR8 carriers, though, as it makes it easier to pull the ZIF
and add another.......

I have a VooDoo3 2000 in a 9500/G3 here beside me that plays Quake III Arena

online gaming....
