I'm intregued to know how fast these are in OS X. I have a Radeon in my B&W G4 (not to 
mention 1GB of RAM and 3 hard disks - but now I'm showing off ;) ) and it's very fast, 
even just on a 66MHz 32-bit PCI slot. In a lot of cases it far out peroforms the 
GeForce 2MX 2xAGP chip in my iMac G4.
I did use a Voodoo3/2000 in OS X for a while when I ran it on my 7300/200 but as my 
memory serves me it was very slow compared to the 16MB Rage 128 which replaced it. 
Obviously the V4 and V5 have much more oomph, but I'd like some idea of how well they 
cope with all the whizzy flying graphics on OS X 10.2/10.3.
