The pertinent bit:

As for video cards, Apple is planning to support several workstation-quality graphics cards in 10.3, that weren't previously supported, including full support for NVidia Quadro 980, 900, and 750XGL. Support will also be added for ATI's top-end Fire GL series.

Knock on wood, I say!

Now, where is my Quad PPC970 workstation to stuff one of these mamba jambas into?!?

;^p

Sweet, so hopefully this means we wont have to pay apple/ati's inflated prices for the cards(or do the bios hack on the pc version of the card). The cards are the same thing on pc/mac, just they use a different bios so drivers will only work on cards that they designate.

Awesome :thumbsup:

I'm still waiting for Apple to upgrade their CPU's though. I have the TiPB 667 and it really runs OS X like a pig!
