I'm not a gamer either. I bought a Voodoo3 2000 16MB that I'm using with
Mandrake 7.1 without any problems.  Check out www.cwi-az.com, they are
my source for most parts.

BTW, I tryed to use Mandrake 7.2 ( I burned the 2 CD ISO set) and it
broke in a big way, unrelated to the video card.  It's getting a bit to
windows like! I couldn't get any card games to respond properly, several
icons on the bottom menu bar were broken, Netscape wouldn't work, etc.

Anyone else have any similiar experience with 7.2? I've heard others
praise it, but not on my system.
