[Bf-committers] ATI cards for free, last call!

[bf-committers@blender.org]

I could use one of those cards myself. My current offbrand Gforce 
mx440 16 meg card is a little slow and feeling its age. I could 
certainly submit bug reports and I keep my CVS updated regularly.  So 
let me know if I'm in the running so to speak.
