AFAIK, the Rage 128 is about equivalent to the original GeForce...GF2-MX at the very most.  How that's a 128-bit (   :confused:   ) 16MB, AGP 4x card...god knows, they probably just stuck the old chipset on a newer board.

No way man. The Rage isn't even comparable to a TNT2 M64(the low end TNT2).  It is nowhere near a GeForce 2 MX(that is where the Radeon 7500 steps in).

Earlier in this thread people were talking about drivers fucing up in OSes. Now if you want to talk about OS driver fuck up look no further than installing a Radeon in Linux. I have not been able to get the Radeon drivers to work in any distro so far. I'm not the only one as most people do not have much success taking thier Radeon past the generic Vesa driver in Linux. It is ashame because alot of people own a Radeon.

I think we can all agree that ATI writes bad drivers.

now If there were kernel modules by these guys that would kick major ass.

but The only drivers for my old Radeon 7000 were the generic VESA ones, which were ok.... for glxgears.  But RTCW:ET looked like a slideshow on it.

Well it looks like IE will no longer automatically download files(without a user knowing) therefore will not automatically download spyware from sites. If you click on that bar you can choose to install what was blocked.

 Image scaled down so peole don't bitch

This does a far better job:

I have firefox. I still like IE better because of better website compatibility. Speedwise they are both fast. Don't get me wrong, I think Firefox is a nice browser, it just doesn't have all of the written for IE site compatibility.

If I want tabs in IE all I have to do is use MyIE2.
