Yeah, we have a pretty large variety playing in my server group and no one 
has issues that couldn't be resolved. I play on an LCD at 1440X900 and I'm 
very happy with it. I do like CRT better, but the added space on my desk is 
worth the swap. One thing worth mentioning about Six's post is that even 
with a quad cpu UT will only use one core no matter what so gauge your 
performance with that in mind.

BTW six, thanks for the walk down memory lane. I remember bringing my 4200ti 
home and thinking "I can't wait to play!"
