* Original Subj: Suggestions?

I'm thinking about getting a new VLB video card to be used with MS-Windows
3.1, OS/2, and Linux with XWindows.  A good price and local availability are
more important than speed.  Any suggestions?  I'd like to keep this below
$100 or thereabouts.

Two cards in the price range that I've seen locally are the STB Horizon VL
and the Hercules Dynamite.  Will either of these work with XWindows?  Is one
better than the other for any reason?

Another thing: I have an external Sony CD-600A (I think) single-speed CD-ROM
drive on the computer that I sometimes run LINUX on.  Is there a driver for
this drive?  If so, where can I get it?  A BBS or Fido site would be best,
but I can probably manage an FTP.

Thanks,
Bruce
