I would pay money for an updated driver that gave 3d support to the 9800pro (warp3d would be a bonus).

My other option is to switch to MorphOS as I see you can use 9800pro with 3d games, still no warp3d though.

Only downside is I like AmigaOS's workbench over MorphOS...

Atleast with the Peg I can run both :-)

Yep, and if you get an 9800 with a universally keyed AGP card edge (two notches instead of the single notch in a 4x/8x card) you can run that in a Peg too.
And I've seen 256MB 9800Pro cards with R360 GPUs (the 9800XT GPU) that have that card edge, so there is a way to get that installed in a Peg also.

What would be nice is support for the concurrent use of two Radeon video cards. Then we could run Warp3D apps on an R200 and newer apps on an R300.
Right now, the only combination I've been able to figure out that will do this is an R300 and a Voodoo PCI card.

If it's anything like the Radeon driver for the Mediator you can only run one Radeon card at a time.

So would need to be two different cards as you said the Voodoo and the Radeon. Although I notice with the new Radeon HD driver people are running dual cards. There's a how to on the Aeon site but you need to own an X1000 to get a logon :-/
