[comp.sys.mac.hardware] SE Upgrade hardware?

tbetz@panix.uucp (Tom Betz) (05/25/91)

I am quite impressed with what I have seen of System 7.0, but I
feel like I'd be a fool to start using it without being able to
use Virtual Memory.  That means I need a 68030 CPU.

Then I look at the prices of 68030 Macs and I wonder if I really
need that...

Now, there are a lot of different 68030 upgrade systems for the
SE.  Pricing a used SE together with one of these upgrades it
begins to look attractive.

However, I have some questions.

 a) Which of these 68030 upgrades is most cost effective, i.e.:

	1) Provides for the most RAM 
	2) Provides for external video and >color<
	3) Is most reliable

 b) Though it's less attractive from a cost perspective, the old
 used IIs are also looking good.

	I ask the same questions about 68030 options for them.


Thanks.
