Personal opinions and experiences of a somewhat satisfied ATI All In Wonder Radeon user. For regular graphics, the AIW is nice, very nice. Keeps up with things quite well, makes me happy.

For video capture, though, it's useless under Linux. Avoid it. I know of ONE program and setup that can handle it, and MythTV ain't it. (avview with ffmpeg can, though). Go with a TV Wonder or one of the Hauppages (from what I've read lately, the Hauppage is nice, but I couldn't afford it yet, so went with a TV wonder, which works well).
