Hate to burst your bubble but Im pretty sure the iMac's graphics chip is soldered on mobo so it may be a harder replacement than you think... that if if you can even find a replacement ATi Rage Pro for it.

Yes... the vid card was replaced (all in one day :eek: ) and now the iMac is working superbly. The monitor looks brighter and sharper now than it ever has. And surprisingly, everything is a bit snappier than it used to be. Oh well, at least I have my iMac back in my posession. And an iBook on the way!!!
