[Gllug] old graphics cards

[Rickey Costas]

No offence intended; I'm sure they are still very usable cards (I still have a SIS 6326 and a S3 Virge in service).
In 3D games programming circles though, the feforce1's are pretty old.

I just wondered if anyone had any sitting around doing nufink. The games company I'm working with at the moment wanted 
one to do some driver debugging.

Rickey.
