[Chimera-users] Graphics cards for Mac

[William Jeffrey Triffo]

Tom,

regarding 64-bit builds of various third-party packages, is there a way 
some of us Leopard users could help test / figure out if successful 
builds would be feasible? perhaps some of us who are knowledgeable with 
that kind of scut-work would be willing to help with that tedium (?)
