     I have a Sapphire Radeon 7000 dual display capable 64MB DDR card in 
one of the pci slots of my G4/400 AGP model - the agp slot has a 16MB ATI 
Rage in it - also dual display and they get along well together with the 
same drivers. It's a pc model flashed to mac.
     The only reason I still use the Rage is OSX compatability - the 
Radeon will not boot with any build of OSX prior to 10.1 and I have the 
very first build of OSX on a separate partition which I boot into 
occasionally - I work mostly in 9.2.2. I'll have to get a later version 
of X one day.
     The Radeon works fine with 10.1+ or any version of 8/9 but the older 
the version the less features are possible with the card - it requires 
9.2.2 or 10.1 to access the full features of the card.
     The part number of the 64MB pc card flashable to the mac 208 rom is 
1024-9CO2-00-SA.

     Pete
