Well, I don't know of such a Mac. To my knowledge, the only Apple box to have an AGP slot are the ones based on the "Core99" chipset, and they provide one AGP slot. You won't be lucky with Apple HW anyway as there are currently issues between the AGP controller and the Linux agpgart driver preventing from using it. Those issues are tricky and I don't think a solution will be available soon. (Apple chipset can make the AGP aperture visible to the CPU AFAIK).
