The FX5200 is a dog.  Just hit Tom's older VGA Charts (IV?) on how much
even an older GeForce4 Ti4200 whips it -- even at newer games that it
was never designed for.

By the time the features are jacked up so the FX5200/5500 "competes"
with a GeForce4 Ti4200, they are all doing <<10fps in many cases.

It is mathematically impossible for someone who makes more than you
to be anything but richer than you.  Any tax rate that penalizes them
will also penalize you similarly (to those below you, and then below
them).  Linear algebra, let alone differential calculus or even ele-
mentary concepts of limits, is mutually exclusive with US journalism.
So forget even attempting to explain how tax cuts work.  ;->
