Actually, the video chips and MEGA II on the VOC seem to me like
they would be more at home on a GS motherboard rather than a card.
Maybe Apple is planning on using the technology from the VOC
(providing 640x400) on the next GS. Or maybe they took the
technology from some yet to be released GS and put the chips on the
VOC. Who knows... it's just a hunch. :)
