The TX-Pro also uses the SiS Video Chipset. Considering the TX-Pro w/ Video
& Sound is about $79, (if you can get it to work, high failure rate), the
Video and Sound aren't too bad. The video is very similar to my S3 Virge
cards, and run just as fast. The sound is 16-bit, but I don't listen to
Opera...
