What the catalog fails to mention is that you need to have a video card in
order to make use of the snappy. I think. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Some new computers come with video cards. If you don't have one, the video
card can cost several times more than the snappy does. Best to check in to
it before you rush out and buy one.
