Perhaps you havent talked to a lot of the Apple GS techies, but the ones
that I have talked to electronically WANT a GS speedup card.  If Apple and
Applied Engineering are at odds, my personal, off the record guess would be
that it was over the GS-Ram card, which attempts to use more than 4 banks
of memory chips in a way that makes it incompatible with almost all other
DMA based hardware (except of course Appl. Enginn.).  I believe that I
remember some nasty comments when this was first discovered with the digitizer...

Anyway, take this with how ever much salt that you wish...
