Nope - the G5 agp pro slot is not backwards compatible with earlier macs
as the adc power pins (3 and 11) were moved out of the main slot and onto a
stub so that 3 and 11 could be used to provide 8x agp. The G5 agp pro cards
are G5 only simply because of the adc connections. Not a problem in pc agp
pro design so pc agp slots could be backward compatible.
