I'm looking for some input on what people have found to be decent accelerators
for Mac SE's... I have a plain Mac SE with 2.5 megs RAM <will be 4 soon> and
want to speed it up somewhat. I see that the Marathon 020 with the 68881 is
selling now for about $675 or so <I think>, but then I also saw some from 
Gemini and Orchid, and I know Radius makes them....

Does anyone know what exactly any of these do, or how well they work? If I get
an 020/68881 card, will I run into any compatibility problems with existing
software? Will this make my machine a real 020???

E-mail responses and I will summarize if necessary....

Thanks!
