I'm considering buying a MacSprint II card for my Mac II and was wondering if anyone had any experience with it. Is it compatable with everything? Will I notice the difference? Where will I notice the difference the most (graphics, number calc, database, compilers)? / Josh Pritikin T The C++ programming language \ | Internet: 6500stom@ucsbuxa.ucsb.edu | is at worst, the second best | | AppleLink: Josh.P | for a given application. | \ GEnie: J.Pritikin !

It is an elegant solution, compatible with everything even 32-bit QD, since they upgraded the software... The difference is most noticable on screen manipulation! It makes a HUGE difference on SoftPC, because of the way they do text 'scrolling'. ================================================================== Phil Hunt "Wherever you go, there you are!!!"
