DOH! It actually cost me less to buy from Compusa, believe it or
not. The price was exactly the same as the apple store, I didn't have to
pay shipping, and there's no sales tax where I live, so it worked out
nicely :-P

I'll give it a shot. The radeonfb does work, but it was just slow. I am
currently using the OF fb support, but will test radeonfb
