[ale] AGP card slot issues, again

[Jay Loden]

Wouldn't it be cheaper / easier to just pick up an AGP card that fits? I used 
to have like ten of them floating around but I think I gave them all 
away...if you want I can see if one of my buddies has a 8mb AGP card still.  
You did say it was an 8mb, I think?  Or maybe I'm going senile.
