I was waiting to purchase the 9600XT when they start selling, but have
just came across a chance to buy the BBA 9800np for $250. Any
thoughts or opinions appreciated.

Thanks everybody for the input. Have purchased the 9800np and
installed it already in my son's computer (early xmas present). No
problems on installation and runs great.
