Converting 9800 series cards to Mac compatibility is fairly easy.
I don't think so. For a start, you need another computer to reflash the card, and it must have a compatible slot.
It's a new burden anyway, yet another hurdle for users that can put them away MorphOS. Of course, the PowerMac usually comes with the video card. But perhaps there's some with its video card missing, because it was a rare item, sold separately.
Which brings up the case of setting up a (admittedly very small) business of making and selling refurbished computers with MorphOS, instead of the very entertaining (and mandatory) do-it-yourself that forms part of our history.
