 Sounds lovely, but it'd have to have a PCI (not PCI-Express) bus, and I
don't think any were made. According to Wikipedia, my only hope with ATI is
a Radeon 7200, 7500, or 9000-9250:

 I know, picky-picky. I'm trying to be a beggar *and* a chooser. Still, I'm
willing to negotiate trades of other hardware for such a card; I have a desktop
Wifi card (that works with Linux) that I would add to the above Geforce card
in exchange for a PCI Hardware T&L card, or a 800MHz+ Slot 1 CPU.

 Sincerely,
