That's ok with me. The only alternative for a 32 meg card is a Nexus, and
those seem to be hard to find, and just as pricey when you do find one.
There are only two on ebay right now.

I got the Radeon for 97.00 brand new too at ENPC.com. I don't care if it
shows a big floating booger until the OS loads, I can't use it till it loads
anyway. If it works then, I'm good.
