true, though the stock cards will mostly do for most things these days. I go out of my way for a good video card. Because if the op is mostly graphic. Then I want something to handle it and do it fast. That way leaves more room for my stuff to run just as fast! At 05:30 PM 4/20/2011, you

hmmm you are probably right. I have stock graphics that comes with the systems I use and mostly these are quite fast. I'd probably get midrange dedicated sound and graphics if I could though. Hi Shaun, Well, then it will come as a big surprise to you that the better the graphics card the

Hi Milos, I agree with everything that Thomas said about us adding graphics to our games. Maybe one exception, the people at All In Play and I think Che have graphics along with access in their on line card games. Of course a card game and putting cards on the screen is so much more simple

Hi Milos, There is quite a range in the quality of graphics on a computer screen. For example, The graphics that is in the GMA game engine and is used in Shades of Doom is the equivalent of Morris code or the sound the PC speaker used to make. It makes beeps that rise and lower in pitch. Not

Hi Shaun, Well, then it will come as a big surprise to you that the better the graphics card the better Jaws, Window-Eyes, Hal, etc will work with it. You really do need that extra memory etc if you are dealing with offscreen models and all the other stuff that screen readers use. Plus these days

Hi Trouble, Nicely said. I gave a lot more detail in my prior post, but quite simply if the OS needs it don't buy the cheapest pile of junk video card believing that it doesn't matter. Truth is it does matter in terms of performance, screen reader access, etc. The old saying, you buy cheap you
