Colin,

There has been a lot of discussion on this net concerning the Mobius FPD 
and 030.  I also own one and I think that it is generally recognized as 
offering an incredible amount of performance at an excellent price.

I find the display to be very crisp and sharp with barely any distortion. 
 The accelerator and math coprocessor option has not caused me any 
problems.  I have an occasional problem formatting new floppies (they 
fail to verify, but eventually will verify) and I suspect this may be a 
combination of a borderline floppy coupled with the increased demand the 
030 has put on my power supply...but it is infrequent and not considered 
to be a major problem.

I'm very happy with my decision to purchase the Mobius.  I think they 
have good support too.

Mike
