Well, he mentions that the new machine won't run anything but XP.  I 
find that hard to believe, myself, however...  Why not FIPS a smallish 
partition for linux and see if it won't install anyway, just to see?

If there are no other options, you'll probably have to get newish cards 
like you mentioned.
