Hello again nettechs....

This time I don't need "help" per se but want opinions:

What's the best way to speed up an original PS/2-30 
(the original, with an 8086 not 286 cpu)
     ^^^^^^^^
(No microchannel buss; takes ISA cards)

Will an Intel Above Board do the trick? (which model?)
Is it cost effective? (I've seen them locally for around $470.)

Thanks for any help/opinions.  Please e-mail responses.
