AGP Video Card for a 30 Dell UltraSharp?

What might I get out of it with my Radeon ATI Radeon 9800 Pro? A few folks say the DVD-I there is not Dual Link. Wonder what the VGA would give me with the monitor? The maximum allowed by the ATI 9800 card is in the ball park of 2048x1152 (16:9)). The 30 monitor is a 16:10 ratio type.

Or I can Highlight and Copy any information such as the Subject: or other information embedded in the message and paste it into the search tab and the system will locate every occurrence. However in OS X 10.6.4 eMail 4.3, the drag and drop doesn't work. Does anyone else on this list use the drag and drop feature in eMail?

DVD, Webcam, Pix, and Images: why are they soooo different
DVD, Webcam, Pix, and Images: why are they s different I continue to delve into the various differences on my several Mac presentations. When viewing a DVD, even in FULL SCREEN presentation, the picture is perfect, not a pause or flicker to be found. When I view a canned video downloaded from the internet and presented in Quicktime, Real, or Windows Media, we have pauses and disruptions even at small sizes. Allowing the video to fully download to the computer then showing it makes no major difference, but does cure some minor presentation issues. So, what is the difference between a video downloaded and now resident on the computer and a DVD being read from a disk? Why aren't these presentations the same or nearly so? I do understand that if the processor is spending time to service the download at the same time it is required to spend time slinging it to the screen, their will be a slow down, but once the video is downloaded, why aren't the DVD and Video the same quality?

Re: DVD, Webcam, Pix, and Images: why are they soooo different
My best guess is that it's the video codec that's making the difference in playback quality. DVDs are encoded with MPEG-2, which requires less processor resources to decode and play back that the newer file formats commonly used in downloadable video. Your G4's processor is simply too weak to keep up with the load of decoding said newer formats.
