C'mon "nix" i believe that you can afford it, and any recent card from ATI or Nv below the $100 mark, can dance around your antique...
Its good to think about *legacy* support.. but there is no need to exaggeration, just because OSS end-users are used to obsolete HW due to the development delegating very little and get trapped very often with having to reverse engineer things... for instance with Dynamic loading of partial device drivers that can be a thing from the past.

Oh yes indeed, I have no illusions that my present antiques are worth catering to, and will be upgrading imminently... but it's still sort of scary to find one that X works with and is decent :)
