Certainly the Powe rMac (PCI Graphics) has a 66MHz PCI slot dedicated for the graphics card. Don't know if "Yikes!" is the same one or not..

Several Power Macintosh G4 machines older than the Quicksilver series also have got 4 RAM slots and, using Mac OS X, a maximum of 2 GB RAM was supported by the hardware. Yet, I guess that 2 GB of memory will probably not be supported on those computers if you run MorphOS, as these limitations also apply to MDD machines.
However, regardless of the number of DIMM slots, only the DDR-equipped models (MDD, FW800) support >1.5GB memory (if Apple docs are accurate in this regard).
