i'm considering a new computer purchase with pentium 200mmx, to play alot
of games,etc.
my question: Is the ati (perhaps allin wonder or proturbo pctv2,etc) common
for games to be compatible with, 
and is this a pretty good card for mostly 2d and some 3d usage. i would
like the ability to 
display games onto a tv and tv/vcr to monitor for "saving". i heard a new
card (expert-type unknown)
can do this and has the new agp credentials.    mostly worried about high
cost, compatibilty, ease
of use and of course good quality of image.  please would knowlegable
persons advise me of this or
perhaps another card that will do these functions with the same
concerns.please state what card(s)
to consider.


 thank you much in advance.... mark (email at:   ma...@prodigy.net )
