You're an idiot. Try running DX10 games on linux. Won't happen. Can'tFormer said:The card is not OLD you fool.....
it works with Linux great and has all the 3d enhanced desktop ..
its VISTA that is a SNOB on what it needs cards to have....
it has outrageous needs for effects that could be done with far lesser
cards...
Vistas demands on GPU power is like killing a fly with a nuclear warhead.
No, it's several generations too old.

Richard G. Harper said:It was introduced five years ago and is a 2x/4x AGP card. Yes, that makes
it old by any reasonable standard, not just "Vista" standards.
And no, I am not a fool; I'm sorry that your opinion causes you to see
that in others as it will likely blind you to many people that you might
otherwise enjoy and benefit from associating with.

Former captain of the Enterprise said:if you were around here more, you would understand that the card you have
is very powerful in comparison to what windows actually does with the
interface....
That card can draw complex 3d images.. vista only uses some simple
commands
that could be done with that card easily..
and linux can use your card to do just that with an interface called
beryl.
The reason for Microsoft wanting more powerful cards is different.....
and dark.....
