Chris,
Regarding the ATI Radeon. Please do a little google searching as the
MAC version of the radeon (powercolor clones) is quite expensive
compared to the PC version. I had luck with both a PCI and AGP cards
flashing the bios from pc to mac. You do need a pc to do the
process. It's been a while, so I don't remember the exact model
numbers (7000 PCI / 7200 AGP?).

Thanks Erica and Greg for your replies!
I've heard that upgrading a power computing comp. to
run mac OS X is quite expensive so probably.
I would be buying parts off of ebay so that should keep the cost down.
I have an orange micro combo firewire/usb pci card installed and a
couple of HD's connected via firewire. I also have a Sonnet Tempo
HD PCI IDE card. It has a 2.5 inch laptop drive (10GB) on the card
(my boot drive) and a large 3.5 inch HD (160GB)and CDRW connected to
the single IDE bus. Currently its running OS 9.2.2 with 160MB RAM.
I will contact sonnet to see if there will be any issues with the
Tempo HD card in OS X.
My hope is too purchase a cheap G3 processor card and an ATI Radeon
7000 card off ebay. If I can do this and get OS X running (may have
to up the RAM some more) satisfactorily then it would >
TIA
Chris
