Actually, I'm using games (Unreal Tournament, Star Wars Pod Racer) to verify what Norton System Info is telling me, and what it is telling me is that I'm getting little if any 3d acceleration at all. My Wallstreet Powerbook (233mhzG3/RageLTPro) with slower (supposedly) video and processor is dramatically better/faster. This just confirms to me that the Radeon 7000 card is not working as promised.
