I didn't realize these cards were that different.  Certainly a bigger 
difference hardware wise then I had known.

Anyone out there got a retail Radeon VE working with dual head? 
Specifically an agp card that has two outputs on the card itself, one 
vga and a second that is digital?  My card came with an adapter that 
will permit two vga monitors.

Sure, send me the patched binary, I'll give it a spin, thanks.

I didn't have to buy my radio from a specific company to listen
to FM, why doesn't that apply to the Internet (anymore...)?
