Hi,

thank you for the answers. I am only interested in NetBSD 
(probably I will play Ages of empires under MacOS occasionally:)).

I currently have some options:

604e 300MHz. card (USD 45,--)
G3 400MHz. 512K Cache (USD 190,--)
G3 400MHz. 1MB Cache (USD 250,--)
G4 400MHz. 1MB Cache (USD 380,--)

Does it make sense to use a G4 card under NetBSD (a G3 500 
costs about the same as a G4 400)? Does it make sense to pay 
more for 1MB cache?

Thanks

mike
