(Trust me, I know this one..... ask Bolty).It's funny that you mention this.
I have probably the worst video "card" ever made. It's an onboard S3 Graphics ProSavageDDR. Google the name and you'll see how bad it is. It's 32 megs of pure spite and sewer water.
My other specs are:
AMD Athlon 1700+XP
512 MB DDR RAM
Now that's not so bad, is it?
Amazingly enough, I get decent framerates with my crappy chipset. I average about 20-30, which is more than playable. The real problem stems from the fact that my card skips the middle polygons in WoW. The close polygons look great. The far-off ones look nice. The middlegons are non-existant.

New video card, here I come!
