You have almost as much video choice as really matters. Just get Wildcat
support...
I seriously considered getting a Mac the last time I spend more than $150
for a computer. But, that was long before OS X was out, and I just couldn't
stand the thought of trying to do C++ programming on Mac OS 8. All the
resets involved the last time I did MacOS 8 C programming made me think
I'd hate the machine in short order.
If only I had that much money to spare again.
