Can someone take a look at these site and tell me of these plug into an AGP slot? It looks like they do. I was also wondering if they still made them and if so where could i purchase them?

Why would you want that? If you want more monitors, then buy a few PCI cards or a dualhead (ATI 8500, Matrox G400D) or a triplehead (Matrox Parhelia). That way you can actually play games as well

GF's never had decent image quality until the GF3's. Even now, they still don't match the quality that ATI and even better Matrox provide.

And if you're interested in dual head or better displays then you are interested in 2D Image Quality over pretty much everything else. The 8500's and Paherlia also have the advantage of being DirectX8 in hardware, with the P. having over half of the proposed DirectX9 feature set
