Anybody with a G4 have any luck with an expansion chassis? I am running 3
EDS's and would like to be running at least 5.
Also I do have the AGP slot and was wondering if anybody has a better vidio
card in their G4 than the ATI "Rage 128 Pro"? Thoughts?

The Magma expansion chassises work fine. The Radeon 8500 or 9500 video cards
might work depending on which G4 you have.

I've been using a 13 slot magma with my dual 800 G4 for several years now.
(Full load of EDS cards and a couple UAD-1 cards.) Works great...
