I got it in PC World of all places about a year ago, mostly to play with in a Thinkpad X31 dock (which I got bored with very quickly). I notice that PNY now sell an FX5500 in their online store for $69, which is good if you don't mind international shipping. I might look into getting one to play with, since the ROM should work fine on that too, and there's a chance they used better RAM on it.

Apparently, there's also a GeForce 6200 PCI (for which one should be able to adapt a Mac 6600 ROM, or at least the strangedogs guys have had luck with the AGP ones), though I've never seen such a beast. That would be a fun card to play with in the B&W too.

Yeah, that was me... I posted it to [G] at the time too. According to Mike from xlr8yourmac, it's been creating quite a stir.

Nice one. Is the PNY card easy to get hold of?
