Nah, I didn't miss that one. It's just as has been said before, the G400 series 
has such a flawless NTSC (and PAL?) output... sucks to have to give it up. But 
for $40... well, that's nothing at all. Just wonder what to do with the 
leftover G400 (and the passive heatsink conversion I did to it). I'll look up 
the GF 7xxx though. If it has good video output, I probably should step up.

I'm always a stubborn mule about upgrading, that's all. :P
