my suggestion would be this... if you don't have any scruples throwing $82k around, just get another computer for gaming w/ an ATI or NVidia card in it. for the same cost as a 256mb Parhelia you could get one of the next gen cards that are not even available yet.

It's all for work but after 5, it's my time and if I want to game, it is my equipment. I have to earn it with my work with the public schools but it's mine for many uses including my pleasure. Since I do graphic animation, I need the best and fastest for we are designing educational material in game formats. That is why I need top notch gaming technology. And yes, a designer of such material should be a gamer at heart. I even need more monitors than just three tied to my main work station for I'll be piped into 12 public schools at once. It's like reality TV into a professional artist's studio. My internet connection is so big I don't know the measurement designation for the thing. Eventuall I have to order the equipment for a whole new school for art & technology and when I'm done with that, you'll see a gaming network second to none. I'm hiring some of the top classical artist in the world, one coming from Moscow. I also am courting a guy from Industrail Light & Magic, I have the editor of Renderocity Magazine signed on, so this dell stuff is just for starters. The pople in this town are goihng to try to raise ten million dollars for me to build this school that will eventually become a new Texas University in about 8 to 10 years. And since I love technology, I'm having a ball. The order above goes to Dell tomorrow so at the moment I'm just about giddy with excitment over this new stuff. I've been working with an old p550 and an old Gateway 750 laptop, both dogs.
