OT: Re: [TriLUG] Video Card Recommendation

[willg at pihlopase.net]

Matt,
I have an Nividia card that I am about to return to CompUSA. It's a brand
new Gefore FX 5200plus, 128MB of ram, APG 8x, and has DVI. I bought the
card for $70. This is NOT a card you want to use for gaming, but a great
card otherwise. I would love to avoid the %15 restocking fee and sell it
to someone. The card has a $20 rebate. I'll sell it to you for $40, take
the rebate, and take the $10 loss. This way I do not pay CompUSA to
restock it. Let me know off-list if you are interested. Thanks

Bill
