Chrisso .
Thank you for taking the time to clarify issues. I wanted to make sure 
I had correct information and understood how this worked. My German is 
poor but good enough to understand about Mitch's writing style ;-)

It should be possible to write a Mac Rom Flasher that would work on the 
Mac. If we had one we wouldn't need to use MS DOS on a PC. In which 
case the flasher chip on the PC card could be replaced with an empty 
(blank) chip making it easy to flash with a Mac ROM. A really good code 
writer could also write a Mac Flasher that would erase the PC firmware 
from the chip and put the Mac rom on the chip. We have to work with 
what we have!
Eric for some of us this is a fun game believe it or not and we save a 
few bucks as long as we don't count our time ;-)  Not all of us are 
afraid of using a PC even though the aMac is way better ;-) In fact now 
that OSX has such great software I'm no longer using a PC nor OS 9.x . 
As Chrisso pointed out we also get a 64 mb card for 1/2 the price of 
the 32 mb card. This could be great for people doing video work 
including Photo shop.

Chrisso, know any place that sells the Sapphire card that ships to the 
USA?
www.newegg.com sells the Sapphire brand but doesn't have the 64 mb 
card. I thought I saw it yesterday but I was either mistaken or they 
sold out . later Will Schoumaker
