Thanks. That's a great site. Maybe I'll pick a cheap card up when I have the cash and
flash it. Why do they make mac compatible cards more expensive? Is it because "macs
cost more and that means that mac owners have more money"?

How would I go about installing a new rom? Could I just flash the firmware?
Sounds like a great card to me.
Pretty much. This link will have everything you need to know:

Another idea would be to pick up a used G5 NVidia FX5200 card, do a bit
of modification to the card itself (really easy to do), and just drop it
in. No flashing required with full core and quartz support.
These cards only have 64 meg onboard, but unless you absolutely have to
have 128 megs, this may be the easiest and potentially cheapest way to
get most of your list met.
I used one in my old DA and worked perfectly.
