I was thinking about ATI, as I have some experience with those cards,
but if there is a "better" (or cheaper ;) choice, why not ?

If I got it right, I may be able to get a working tdfx card (what is the
chipset -- tdfx ?), even if it is a PC-BIOS enabled card, but I'll have to
choose a Mac-specific card otherwise (which is perfectly fine for me, as long
as I know why -- and now I think I do) ?

Thanks,
