There exist 50MHz 68030 cards that can be hooked up to a Mac Plus.  It's 
theoretically very zippy, but I really couldn't tell you having never played 
with one.  Last time I priced 'em, you were looking at about $1.2k for the 
50MHz with math.

And where exactly do you get this information?  You're saying that
MacUser is wrong, and a representative from DayStar digital also stated
that existing PowerCache cards work in the P600 with no adaptor (just as
they do in the IIci).  There's no way that can happen with a 16-bit data
bus. Do you actually have any *facts* to support this unsubstantiated
claim?

The trouble is that for the cost of a IIsi he can get a _fast_
486 box.  Your performance assessment of OS/2 is incorrect,
although it does require more resources than WinDOS or System 7.
Windows NT won't be released for the better part of a year,
so we won't know what its performance is like for a long time yet.

Heck, make that parsecs.  No question ISA is brain dead.  However,
the PC user also has the choice of two 32 bit buses, EISA and
Microchannel (MCA).  MCA is the superior of the two, and at least
the equal of NuBus.  EISA isn't quite so good, but it's still
pretty good.  (sidenote: interesting article on local buses

A product of the brain dead ISA bus, not PC's in general.  The
MCA and EISA buses are both auto-configuring (subject, in the
EISA case, to not using ISA cards).

Of course, the price premium on EISA and MCA (and their adapter
cards) brings their price closer to that of a Mac, so they
blunt the "brain dead ISA" argument at the cost of blunting,
at least to some extent, the "overpriced Mac" argument.

    Well, since these 2 machines are identical, about the only turning

Well, I saw the Stingray at MacWorld Boston in 1991 and ordered one on
their upgrade deal. I was very happy with it for about 8-9 months and then
it stopped working. The little rubber rollers seemed to have worn out. They
said they couldn't replace the rollers, but since it had a lifetime
warranty, I could send it back. I sent it back and received my new unit. I
noticed that the internal design was slightly different. This new design
looks like it might last longer than the last one.

Overall, the trackball is pretty good, much better than the Turbo Mouse I
used to have.

I think the key to the unit is its lifetime warranty (at least it had one
when I bought it).

The box is called 'EtherPrint', manufactured by Dayna. Connects exactly
ONE device to EtherNet (may also be a Mac, i.e. a Plus). Don't know the
price, but price/performance ratio is not bad, I think. But do NOT look
out for tremendous speed, because the data STILL need to go through
LocalTalk. If you have LaserWriter II, consider an upgrade to IIf or IIg
which have built-in EtherTalk support.

Look, I somehow doubt that you could draw too much power from a Quadra
power supply just by having a large HD and a Nubus board that draws a
lot of power.

First of all, it is a 300W power supply and can easily handle that kind
of load. I know plenty of people who have a couple of 2GB HDs in their
Quadras and don't have any problem! Two of the nubus slots even have
extra power (25W) beyond the normal 15 watts. Second, the "happy Mac"
wouldn't show up if the load on the power supply were too great. 

Just throwing in my $0.02.

I just saw an ad for it in one of the catalogs (Mac Zone, I think). It's
definitely a
passthrough, but I couldn't tell from the ad whether it was a standard

 I know of two (well, three) routes:

shareware: A wihle back, somebody was beta-testing a product called Witch
which :-) would serve as a driver. You needed a mac serial<==> PC serial
cable.

Commercial: GDT PrintLink Collection (now PowerPrint) and Orange Micro's
Grappler. I've been using PLC for about a year now, and it works great.
It's a serial<=>parallel cable that plugs into the parallel port on
my NEC PinWriter P2200. The driver has a "text" mode that sends ascii to
the printer, which results in the use of resident fonts. This is the
fastest method of printing and the printer's buffer is used as well.
The driver also takes advantage of the printer's graphics mode, for 
printing WYSIWIG. It comes with a set of outline printer fonts; PowerPrint
(i'm awaiting my upgrade now) is fully Sys7, ATM and TT compatible.

Grappler is (from what I've read) similar to GDT's products, but a number
of people told me that it wasn't very reliable.

That's all I know,

This is not necessarily terrible news.  I had the same problem with my

and because I was carrying it back and forth to my office for a while, the
cables justed needed to be reseated.  Others that I know have had similar
