And the Sonnet 1GHz is a G3, I suppose?!? And I agree with Len, I never could find an official or unofficial OS X driver for the 3dfx voodoo 3 3000! In my PM 9600/350, OS 9.2.1, I have the same VooDoo and the same ATI Rage 128. Both with an Apple ColorSync 20-inch. And I must say the VooDoo is faster! Used together sharing the DT or used single, the VooDoo is faster.
