Nothing on the page you linked gave the slightest indication that card works in a Mac, and newegg has great prices, but rather barbaric return policies.


In general, a card without Apple EFI firmware does not show a picture at all on a Mac. There are more cards that do not follow this rule, and more drivers in recent versions of Mac OS X, but you still need a picture on the screen.
