After considering all of the various accelerator boards out there, I decided to get the standard Apple SE/30 upgrade. It may be more money than most of them, but then again, perhaps you get what you pay for. For me, reliability is important, and I have had no problems running anything. Perhaps people out there have had good experiences with 3rd party boards, but I think that it is interesting that I have heard very few comments from such users on this net. (But maybe I just missed them.) Anyway, I'd look into it. And the price might not actually be so much more. Now -- I am interested in finding out what people have to say about disk drives. So far, it seems that Jasmine is a "no", Ehman is a "maybe". Any other good or bad experiences out there? Also 1.4M floppy drives: Are the 3rd party drives decent? Charlie
