One thing has always puzzled me, and that is why can't PC graphics cards work in the mac aren't all graphics cards the same except with firmware makes them work on certain systems, why do we have to pay a premium because we don't own a PC, i could get a 512Mb Graphics card for a PC for around £89, that would get me a Radeon 9600 128Mb for mac, why is this, and what would happen if i were to buy a PC graphics card and put it in my mac. ATi sell cards that are PC and mac in one card whats with that

Hmmmm, seems i mistyped Graphics
