that 6200 is an ok card for the average user.  It is about identical to 
the old geforce4 4400, only difference being it supports newer 
standards.  I had bought that 6200 (it was under $40) but took it back 
because it was exactly the same in speed compaired to my 4400.  I ended 
up buying a 7600 off newegg for about $170 and I am totally happy with 
it.  Runs great and runs all my 3d stuff in Linux just fine (Xgl and all 
my linux games).
