Hello.  I need some information about accelerator cards for an
IBM PC (original).

Basically, what I'm trying to decide is whether it's worth trading
in my old PC for an AT compatible, or rather buying an accelerator
board and installing it in the last of the 5 slots.

Can these boards be put in an original PC (5 slots, 64k motherboard)?
If so, what are some good boards?  How well do they work, how much are
they and are they worth the money.  Any notes, good or bad, would be
most appreciated.  Please, e-mail only.  I'll post a summary if I
receive enough responses.  Thanks much.

ps- sorry if this topic has already been broached.  I have been
    away for awhile.
