Each group I have joined there were a few that found this useful because
they either didnt know it possible   or lacked the resources to do it.

So I have this to offer the group..

FACT a 3dfx Voodoo3/16mb  and/or a Voodoo5/64mb video card that was
originally made for a PC can be made to work without any problems in a MAC.

for those who need/want one   the price difference < though there were
voodoo3's made for MAC's   I dont think 3dfx made MAC cards until voodoo4's
> between a mac and pc version is significantly different
<esp w/voodoo5>

anyway....I have all that is needed to flash a voodoo3 or 5  from PC  to
MAC.
I hear that you can do the same with a voodoo4 < and I have that as well >
but I have never personally done it to a V4.

you can also  flash it back to a PC card  if desired < I did that a week or
so ago to my voodoo3 >

so basically   if you can buy a PC voodoo5 for around $50/used and flash it
to MAC  you have saved yourself about $50.

If you need the flasher and rom let me know and I will email it to you.
