Good advice, except for the fact that you can't buy a video card with 
an Intel graphics processor. They made one once (a long time ago) and 
it was a total piece of crap, so I guess they aren't interested in 
that market any more. You can only get Intel graphics integrated on 
the system motherboard.

Hey Intel, sell me a video card that does HDTV resolution and has HDMI 
output. I don't give a shit about 3D, I want a GPU chip that will 
handle all the work of decoding H264 encoded video.

Regards,

John
