I am considering a cache card for my Mac II. There seem to be
two options:

        - Marathon Racer by Dove, $149.- (MacConnection).

        - MacSprint II by Orchid, $219.- (MacLand).

Both are supposed to increase performance by at least 20%. The Orchid
product explicitly claims compatibility with System 7.0. My questions
are:

        - Do you have experience (good or bad) with any of these?

        - Are the above quotes the best prices available?

        - Is getting a cache card a good idea in the first place?

Thanks for your help.

Edgar
