[lug] TV cards?

[j davis]

My two cents on ATI and linux is spend my two cents and a few more and
get a NVIDIA based card. My ATI Radeon 64 sdr does not even hold a candle
to a Nvidia card using the kernel patch and drivers provided by nividia.
just with that in mind..I would get nivida chipset when ever possible.
