  I am contemplating purchasing a YARC systems board .  This is a Mac II NuBus
board that has an AMD29000 and associated floating point chip being
clocked at 25MHz.  I am curious to hear if anyone has any comments on the board.
In particular I am curious about the robustness of its Fortran compiler
debugger, and front-end softwar (for a Mac II).  Thanks for any help anyone can
offer.
