I'll second David's comments about the 6200. I picked one up on eBay for about $85, and it made my DA DP feel three times as fast on the net. I consider it one of my best update buys to date. - Michael B. in Cincinnati On May 9, 9:47 pm, dc wrote: > My vote is for the GeForce 6200/256MB, great p

My vote is for the GeForce 6200/256MB, great performance and lot's cheaper than a Radeon 9800. They are PC cards that must be flashed or purchased from someone who has prepped it for Mac. I have 6200s in several Macs including Sawtooth, Cube and Digital Audio; they do not have any sleep issues (or
