Yes, most Radeon will allow rotation depending upon the OS. I don't think rotation was available in MacOS 9.x. On early OS X versions there was an ATI utility called "ATI Displays 4.5.7" that had the "rotate" option within. In later versions of OS X (Tiger for certain, perhaps Panther also?), the rotate function was available within the System Preferences>Displays preference pane if you had a Radeon card installed. I normally was using a little nicer Radeon card, a flashed PC Radeon 9100 that was the equivalent of a PCI Mac Radeon 8500. I believe the cheaper Radeon 7000 also had this rotation function, but I rarely used it. If you're using OS X and get a Radeon card, you can enable Quartz Extreme with PCI Extreme 3.1 available at MacUpdate. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
