Ok guys, thanks for the info. I guess ATI is now banned on
all platforms for me :) Wildcat and Nvidia seems to be the
best choice. So... anyone used the Wildcat VP cards under
Linux? I'm staying away from the Nvidia QuadroFX cards since
they are so expensive (waaaaay overprices for
"price/perfomance"). So it will be either a Quadro4 or
WildcatVP.
