There is one configuration (12.1 TFT, 1 Oct 1998) that has 2MB SGRAM video and uses the ATI Rage LT PRO.
Wait... which is the better chipset ? The Rage LT or the Rage LT Pro ?
You really need to use the "ID Code" (part of the last 5 or last 3 characters of the serial number) of the logic board to be sure. You can see the serial number just inside the PC card slot.
Board #1 : MCK8163JAB9BAM
Board #2: QT911CNGDW701 Taiwan 4MPDQSUV-------- Board #1: 4 MB SGRAM, TV out, ATI Rage LT, Service part # 661-2019
Board #2: 4 MB SGRAM, TV out, ATI Rage Pro, Service part # 661-2087
Can't say which is best, but it appears that the "Pro" version is the later model of the two.
It came later, according to ATI, so it is probably better.

That was my guess. I cant get any video out from the WS2 board, but it does clearly boot into the finder, just no video.
I wonder why the WS1 boards dont work with WS2 ? WS2 doesnt like 83 MHz bus speeds ? I wonder if this is a ROM block, like what happened in the PB 1400 CPU modules....
thanks,
