I'm using a Samsung LCD display (which I originally used with a PC) with a Powermac 9600. All I had to do was pick up a Mac->SVGA adapter for $20, like this one.. http://www.national-tech.com/specs/30d2-10206.htm I'm kind of curious to know if I can use a normal PCI video card too with this computer. I have a Matrox 8 meg card lying here which I pulled out of an old Dell that I'd like to use(without using any adapters). Is that possible? -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
