About that too: Voodoo Mac cards have DVI connector, but it's not the current standard. Do they need special compatible monitors to use the DVI feature, or is it possible to use any LCD-TFT with Voodoo MAC series? I never saw the DVI connector on modern monitors, but I know that new video cards use slightly different DVI pinout, so my question is: would it be possible to physicaly plug in a new modern LCD-TFT monitor into a Voodoo Mac DVI conector or would it need a adapter or a old-style compatible monitor?
