I have a Mac IIcx and am looking to emulate one of those inferior IBM type
machines with all the extra power I have kicking around.

Q: Which is better (I leave the word open for interpretation) - Soft PC with
   the EGA/AT option or one of those PC cards?

Q: Is there a card that will give me 386 power in my Mac?  286?

Q: Has anyone tried running Microsoft Windows on a Mac either with the hardware
   boards or with Soft PC?  Is it workable?

Any comments on running the Mac in PC mode would be appreciated.
EMAIL if possible, please.

Thanks in advance -- and HAPPY NEW YEAR!
