Hi Daniel,
The answers are yes and yes. It's for their PCI model,
it requires special drivers. I'll see if I can find it offhand.
I think I remember that it included the RageII+ built into the
motherboard for some models. The used to list ATI cards
on their 3rd party site, but I can't seem to find them. You'll
probably have to contact ATI and ask them about sparc PCI support.
I'm sure that they will plug, but you may need the latest drivers to play.
