[G4] video card question

[J. R. Rosen]

GOOD MORNING MARGARET!

You do have options!

In my G4 450MP, I have the NVIDIA GeForce4 MX video card.  This has  
the both connections (digital & analog) on it plus it's QuartzExtreme  
compatible.

I think you can pick one up for about $50 - $100.  Check out Other

GOOD LUCK ! ! !
