It won't fit into my mac's for sure, or my friends, or my dad's.  The designed it so it takes two slots, there is no other slot next to the AGP slot.  The RAM is right next to the AGP so how will it fit...

The windtunnel G4's are like this, but the earlier ones are not.

I'm sure they'll fix this problem.

I'm sure they'll just throw in a spacer somewhere.  Of course, watch them claim that the extra spacer hole now means the G4 has 5 PCI slots, that would be funny, just like their 4 USB ports-when-you-count-the-keyboard trick.

Can't they reverse the card?  Might have to mod my cheese gratter if they don't.
