[CUBE] PowerLogix card

[Michael Swale]

I just upgraded my G4 500 to the Powerlogix 1.35 and let me tell you, this
thing is FAST! It boots up around 20sec, everything just moves so dam fast!!
It is a new computer!

I tried to stress test it, I played Unreal Tournament 2004 for about 1hr, no
heat issues and I was running full graphics and still doing over 30fps!!

There was hardy any heat coming from the top!

I can say it was the best $600 I ever spent on my cube!
