I'm interested in getting more out of my PC. I'm looking at the Orchid
Turbo-186 and am wondering what my other alternatives are. If no-one has
recently reviewed these, I'd be glad to accept mail and post a summary.
Things I'm particularly interested in:
How transparent is the board? I run DOS and Venix, and would like to
accelerate both.
How much bang for the buck? Clock rate vs. PC would be one metric.
Comparison with AT would be another. Informal benchmarks, too.
Speculation:
With the AT out, shouldn't all the accelerator manufacturer's be
making cards that will turn your PC into an AT? Anyone know of such a
project?
