Ask Slashdot: What Graphic Card for 2D?

Florian sent us a simple question:What video card do people recommend these days? "I will choose between the Matrox Productiva and the Diamond Viper. I only need the Card for 2D. I already have a Monster Card. So what card could you prefer me? Thanks... " I'm actually curious what experience people have had with modern cards and Linux. My newest video card is a 3 year old Millenium, so I'm totally out of touch. Note:Send submissions to Ask Slashdot to Clifton Wood.
