I guess they still put a heavy premium on all those slots. Here's an idea: 1,715 New LC (mail-order price fm March 91 MacUser) 1,495 50 Mhz 68030 accellerator (uses direct slot of LC) (March 91 MacUser Venture Technologies advertised price) ______ 3,210 (plus adapter: $174 educ disc. price) AND KEEP YOUR 6-slotted MacII ! BTW, Venture Technologies also has a $1495 50 Mhz 030 for the IIci CACHE SLOT, and also advertises a <*get this*> 50 Mhz 68040 card! Yes, I said 68040, and no, I hadn't even heard of Venture Technologies B4 reading the ad. Rich (rwyckoff@copper.ucs.indiana.edu)
