Are there any Mac games it's worth putting through a Voodoo card, rather than on a PC? I have a PowerMac digital audio 733 with a Ti4600 for the fastest possible OS9 and (fairly fast) OS X games. I'd imagine the 4600 is so much faster than a Voodoo, and most of the games are on PC it isn't worth bothering with

What does this have to do with Mac hardware emulation?

Yup. Don't even have to mess with the bios.

Doing the opposite myself - using a mac voodoo in my w95 machine.
