 Possibly; as Dan and Kris suggested, I too lean towards a software issue,
as the behavior certainly resembled a faulty driver - would be nice if Apple
posted updates to such instead of the "one size fits all" OS-embedded
method.
And I will check the firmware of the G4 itself. Anyone know the latest
version for a QuickSilver?
Thanks to all,
Dana
