hi

I have heard a lot about the vodoo2 card that was designed for use in the imac models that had the mezzanine connector

does anybody have a picture of this card? - as I can't understand how anything would fit underneath the motherboard? (as I've been told the connector is on the underside)

any ideas?

and BTW, the card does work great with such older games as Carmageddon, Quake I, etc.. It also worked great with VirtualPC 3, which supported hardware accelleration... I could actually play Grand Theft Auto, albeit slowly when I had that card in my Rev B iMac (233)

See, whatcha gotta do is get yourself a 1 GHz G4 upgrade for your RevB iMac, with the Mezzanine slot filled, then you'll have the Ultimate GTA machine!

(Or...y'know...get a PlayStation )
