done- bought stuff.
I have an old desktop i want to connect to a TV downstairs for my parents to stream asian movies.
I need an AGP video card with DVI out and a PCI wireless NIC.
I'm also getting rid of 512 DDRII 667 ram for notebook and desktop if anyone wants to buy.
I prefer to be contacted via email.
Thanks,
Tony.
