| The Marathon 030 *is* an accelerator.  It's a 16Mhz 68030.
| At MacWorld, Dove had an accelerated Plus and SE and the
| speed was excellent.
  
                                           
Now hold on here.  We've seen many people on the net say that the
Marathon is supposed to be positioned as a 030 upgrade rather than an
accellerator.  Clearly, there will be _some_ speed gain...  but really
HOW MUCH?  10%?  20%?

How fast is 'excellent?'
