Ok, perhaps the way the card currently works has colored my opinion of it. I do belive that both the Twin Turbo and ATI cards work better with fewer problems then the Ultima Rez using OS 9.x or OSX.They don't seem to suffer from the artifacts problem nor are they as pci slot sensitive. You of course are free to think otherwise. ;-) Will S -- SuperMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
