[comp.sys.mac.hardware] Novy Systems Accelerator for Mac

Is anyone out there familiar with the Novy systems accelerator for the SE?
I got some information for the company and it gave a price in the $600.00
range.  This accelerator includes space for 4 meg of RAM, System 7.0 compatible
including Virtural, compatibility with external monitor/monitor cards.  

I am interested in any reviews on this product.  Based on the literature and 
talking to the company experts this product sounds good.  
		Thanks for any input,

I am writing this from a MacPlus with the Novy Quik 30, 16Mhz board.
I have also seen the 25Mhz board with math chip. Our university comp.
center is buy sixteen of the latter to upgrade Pluses, primarily for
engineering lab use.

I am _very_ pleased by the product. I, too, did my homework. I read the
major reviews, talked to several manufacturers, etc. I concluded that
the Novy hard- and software technology was superior, their prices are
the most attractive, and no other accelerator is significantly faster.
Most of all, they give excellent support, sales and technical, and they
ship promptly.
