    ...if used together with a Radeon. That's also what the linked comment says, btw. Furthermore, it refers to another comment in that same thread that has a report of a Voodoo 3 3000 PCI working with MorphOS as the sole graphics card in a PowerMac G5.

    Thank you for the welcome, everyone.

    I also appreciate the links to the person working on a dual monitor setup- I’ll copy their success- it is sounding like a G5 is likely the way to go.

    Looking forward to diving in

    That person so far did not have any success with dual-monitor setup on his G5 as far as I can see.

    It appears you are correct.

    I think I have more reading to do

    Welcome back to using an Amiga based system, and even though some features of MorphOS are likely to feel a little strange, as they did for me when I started using it in 2012 there is a definite improvement in almost every area of the OS that has enhanced its features and capabilities that far surpassed even my initial hopes, and I hope the same is true for you, over time.

    Don't forget to take a look at More Reading where there is much to discover, but I feel sure any MorphOS user would say ask any questions you can't find answers for in the library directly here in these forums.

    Have a great time using and enjoying MorphOS :bloons:

    Thank you very much 😊. I’m sure I’ll have questions after I get it installed on a machine.
