I saw an X1650 512 mb card at Frys for $160 after rebate.

I will probably hold out for the new cards to be announced in March from ATI that support Direct X 10. At the very least they will be cheaper when the new chipsets arrive.

I have an HP a730n with hyper threading 3.0 Intel that I run two instances with. It is not as fast as a true dual core but it seems to work ...

How? Is that under Linux? 'Cause if I try to start a second session, even with the first set to CPU 0 with XP Pro, a pop-up says "There is already one copy of Folding running".

$160 isn't bad .... hmmmmm
