Looking at the preliminary test results for the new nvidia 8800gtx I would be very tempted by that, even if its not quadro. Seems like a monster of a card, and will be interesting to find out how it performs with 3d apps, or non-windows software...

Nvidia just announced a new 88xx something Geforce,
