Ok - other issues aside, does anybody have a recommendation for a video
card?  And perhaps a good place to get one (preferably online)? 

Requirements:

VGA port
S-Video port
Linux supported (including the S-Video out)
Prefer NVidia
Cheap (like less than 50 bucks?)

This isn't a gaming machine or anything - the current card is only 32MB
and would be fine except that it doesn't have an S-Video out...

Thanks to all for the feedback.
