Hi mark

Yes almost exactly like that :) I haven't bought anything yet, but they do have a real "stickiness" and I keep going back. The bidding is kind of fun, I check the retail price on PriceWatch.com first and then try to base my bid on that.

I'll let you know if I'm successful!

Lou

I wonder if you could help me with a problem?

I would like to get a new video card for my computer which is a Dell XPS 166c with 80 megs of RAM. My monitor is an NEC Multisync XP17. The original video card is a Number Nine Imagine 128 with 4MB.

The card that interests me is a Number Nine Revolution IV 32 AGP. The terms AGP and PCI have me confused. Could this AGP type card run under Windows 95 and the setup described above? Or will a PCI type card be necessary?

Thanks in advance for any light you can throw on this for me.

Using Win95, I was advised to make a copy of my System.Dat file prior to doing some editing work. When I found the file I saw where it is over 6 megs. Is this normal to have a System.Dat file that large? If it isn't, anyway I can reduce the size without zapping Win95. Making a copy will take 5 floppy disks.
Thanks in advance.
