Does the Performa 6400 take full-size video cards? I can't remember. I used to have a Performa 6360 which would *only* hold the smaller (half-size or something) video cards... but of course that's an entirely different case-design and everything, so that may not be relevant... but as I vaguely recall there were several other Mac models which also did not take full-size cards. Anyone know more about that? (Fuzzy memory here, sorry)
