Does any one know where I can find it for about ~140 or lower maybe? Also someone mention the cmf chip is really bad, what is your opinion on this? Thanks. I have seen cards at trade shows for $140. These trade shows hit differnet areas. I have had very good luck at these shows. I have bought 4/5 of my computer, including memory at these shows. Some of the vendors there have warrenties (usually 6mo - 1yr) plus some of the big manufacturers have them too. Watch your local major paper for shows near you. +-----------------+---------------------------+-----------------------------+ | Bill Poitras | Polygen Corporation | {princeton mit-eddie | | (bill) | Waltham, MA USA | bu sunne}!polygen!bill | | | | bill@polygen.com | +-----------------+---------------------------+-----------------------------+
