I was in the lab today and played with a Mac SE for the first time. For whatever reason (higher resolution, less efficient firmware, etc.) it ran about as fast a stock GS. Disk access seemed noticibly faster, but I was comparing its HD 20 to a 3.5" drive... And, the GS is very open like its little brothers and sisters, and 7 slots (and one for memory)!! Don't forget color, Ensoniq DOC, RAMFastSCSI, etc. The system software on the Mac (6.0.5) didn't impress me at all after I started using GS 5.0.4. ---- ProLine: crew.wicklein@pro-midnightex Internet: crew.wicklein@pro-midnightex.cts.com UUCP: crash!pro-midnightex!crew.wicklein ARPA: crash!pro-midnightex!crew.wicklein@nosc.mil
