[CUBE] graphics options?

[FrankG]

You opened up the can of worms again-
If having your windows and scroll bar acting zippier for $250 go for it
I haven't had anybody give me evidence of  the need of an upgrade video 
card unless you are a gamer, into 3D creation, or digital video 
creation-The only need I personally see in a 1ghz upgrade is to process 
my large Hi Res photoshop files (500mb+-opening and saving) but I 
expect I'd only get a few seconds trimmed
