Well, I'm not really in the market...yet. But I have both a nVidia
GeForce2 MX400 (AGP) and a Matrox G200+ (PCI). I think if I were doing
*just* desktop stuff, I'd definitely go with Matrox. But the 3D front
is much more complicated, especially in Linux.
On the win32 front, it's MUCH more cut-and-dried. 3D? nVidia, hands down.
