I do a lot of scientific programming and graphing, so a small speed increase would mean a lot to me. I have been trying to follow the comments made about the Dove Marathon 030 boards, and don't like the fact that you lose the sound capabilities of the machine. Does anyone out there have any comments on the Marathon Racer? I'm looking for pros and cons. E-mail directed to me would be fine, or a posting to this group would be fine if the author feels his/her comments could aid others seeking information about the Racer. Brian M.
