SO do you think the Radeon would help if I'm intent on running OSX? I really don't mind OS9 - as long as I can find some video editing software. Any recommendations?

For Mac OS 9 the on board video (specially if maxed out to 6 MB) is great... but for Mac OS X, pretty much any of the ATI PCI video cards (Rage 128 or higher) will end up making a pretty big difference. Mac OS X passes a lot of stuff off onto the video card. I've had pretty good luck with clients using the Rage 128 cards out of the Blue & White G3s in Beige G3s while running Mac OS X.
The
finding part is always going to be the hardest part of getting video editing software for Mac OS 9. I bought Premiere 5.1 on ebay about three months ago for about $25. I've also seen Final Cut Pro 2 and 3 for semi-reasonable prices. The next thing I'll be looking for for my older systems is After Effects 4.x.
I also had a free version of VideoShop 3.0 (from an old MacAddict CD), I'll have to see if I can find it some where.
