odd question: do Nvidia graphics demos work on ATI cards?

You're not the only one...the demo runs as a slideshow on my GF3, presumably due to software emulation...I want to get a 9800 Pro, but I saw a 256 MB 5600 which is more than a little tempting (4x my current memory) and it would run Dawn...tough choice...

Some of them do, but the vast majority are intentionally coded to require an nVidia graphics card or use nVidia specific driver extensions.

I found an nv35 emulator in the thread I got the demo 'patch' from. PM me your email and you could have it too. ;) Like I said, it's a slideshow for me, though. Your GF4 might actually play it.
