Why, oh why, did Apple not get rid of the Rage 128 Pro? Why not the ATI Radeon instead of the Rage 128 Pro?
Granted it may misguide consumers into believing that one card is more powerful than the other solely because of its use in a higher-config machine, but I'd rather have the Radeon instead of the Rage 128 Pro...
It would have been nice if Apple puts the GeForce2 MX in the lesser units and included the Radeon Mac Adition (not the OEM one) which will benefit some users who don't have FireWire digicams but yet yearn for some video editing.

Gee, I dunno. Perhaps the very old Rage 128 Pro is cheaper than a brand new Radeon. Perhaps Apple would like to make as much profit as possible?

I hope not. Although then again, I could simply be asking just for too much.

Asking for a video card that is better than what you can find on some $700 PCs is not asking too much. You should have a choice between Radeon and GeForce, standard. The Rage 128 was crap when it first showed up on the B&W G3s back in January 1999!
However, Apple is cheap.
