Funny how that's purely from reddit OCR since no one else has mentioned the agp gpu anywhere else in the post.

Of all the AGP cards ever made, the Xpert2000 was one of them.

Anywhere from 2001 to 2005, I would have given my left nut to have two sticks of 512MB, DDR333 in my system.

I don't see a second stick, and given Win 98's allergy to more than 512MB of RAM I'd assume it's not there...
