Hi, I am back from a two-day absence. My feeling is that if we allow lots of "stuff" in that is not fixed, we may end up with lots of people that will not get their systems working. This is an appliance. You don't get to specify the video board used when you buy a Tivo. nVidia cards work and are cheap (I have been told). If they want to use something else, they can do that at home. All of that having been said: o strongly suggest an nVidia o tell them that any other card is "best effort" basis o make them tell you what it is if it is not an nVidia If we get too many non-nVidias or "odd things", we can reject the registration. >What email address do you want me to use?
