save up another $25 and get a radeon 9500/9600Pro.
You will really appreciate it in games.

If you don't play games then I can't really see the point in upgrading.

spend 20 less and get a 4200

The Radeon 9500/9600 Pro cards have a few graphical goodies to offer the TI4200 doesn't. DX9 support, DIVX enhancement as well as a noticable speed boost.

I'd recommend a 9500 Pro or 9600 Pro card if you can afford it.
If not, the GF4 TI4200 is still a very powerful card at a good price.

I'll join the others and say: Ti4200 for $100 or 9600 Pro for $150. Personally, I would save up the extra $ and get the 9600 Pro only because it is the newer technology.
