PseudoFPU totally eliminates the "coprecessor not installed" error, with
a tremendous sacrifice in speed. It's about box states that using
PseudoFPU is 100 times slower than a 68881, which is in turn slower than
the 68882 coprocessor on Apple's adaptor board. As an si owner, I have
been using PseudoFPU temporarily. Once third party companies show more
si expansion products, I will definitely buy a real coprocessor of some
sort.
