Greetings, netfolk!


	I find myself unsure as to whether I should lay out between $3500
and $4000 for a Mac IIsi setup, or should upgrade my SE to an SE/30 at a
cost of between $2000 and $2500.  I humbly request your opinions on the
following questions:

1)  Which is faster, a IIsi or SE/30 (each with FPU)?

2)  What are my options for color monitors for the SE/30?  I see a lot of
Radius cards, but they all appear to be monochrome.  Is there a PDS card to
allow an SE/30 to drive an Apple color monitor (either 13" or 12").

3)  Are there any other significant differences between the two models that
I should consider in making my choice?

	Please e-mail replies to me -- I'll post a summary if I get enough
requests for one.


Thanx in advance,

	Warren J. Madden
