You can easily find ATI Radeon 7000 Mac Edition cards for MUCH less.
Like a third of that price.
And for a PCI Based machine, it will still be faster than the Bus will support.
You can flash a PC version of the card (which you can buy for $35.00) to the Mac Version easily.

Hi all
I just last night got OS X 10.2 running on my PTP 250, [EMAIL PROTECTED], 512MB RAM with TT128 and XpostFacto! I can tell you it woke this old box right up, it does everything (to my surprise!) faster than it did under OS 9, and its rock stable too :-)
So, I've got me an old Matrox Millennium II 4 meg graphics card, with the rare 8meg RAM addon attached. Its flashed to Mac, and it worked on my older systems. Do I dare plug it in under X? Are there any Matrox drivers for it under X, even third party? It does have some 3D acceleration to it, and I'd imagine its 2D performance to be faster than this old TT128. Has anyone tried this?
I know the best way is to buy a Radeon 9200SE Mac edition, but until I can come up with $130 (its gonna be awhile..) I will have to make do with what I got.
Thanks
Bolton
