more than i thought. the Quicktime support is something i was not aware of and changes my opinion of the usefulness of MP in OS9 a little. the plethora of graphics apps supported certainly made it a kick-ass graphics box in it's time.
but for most normal activities, the extra processors would not be beneficial. if you are a high end graphic or 3D artist, then it will benefit you. if not, then you are basically using a 200 mhz 604e which is very slow. plus, i am not sure that the OSX versions of those apps will use the processors. i would be sure of that before deciding against a G4 card. the fact that you might be stuck with OS9 apps forever would be a drawback.
