I have just purchased an IBook G3 700. In system info it states the video card is an ATI Rage M6 16 meg. Is this the same as a Radeon 7500? If not, what it is it?

It's a standard ATI Rage mobility. 16MB video ram.

Sounds like you have the earlier model, as reported by everymac - some 700s had the 7500 chip, others standard mobility. D'oh!
