Any specific recomendations? I hear nvidia's are good; might also
consider playing with the ATI all-in-woder, if i knew the tv stuff would
run in a linux only box.  1024x768 with 32-bit color is the max
resolution I would want to get - the current flat screen can't do better
than 1024x768, and my eyes could not read it anyway.

I just want speed, linux compatibility, and excellent image quality.

aloha,
