It comes with SAM and SUM II and is $449 from MacConnection. Has anybody had any experience installing this thing? Are it and the software worth the price, or should we consider another *reasonably-priced* accelerator? What improvement in performance can we expect going from a 16MHz 020 to a 32MHz 030? Thanks for any comments.
