Ben, I have had Magellan 2.0 for at least 4 months now and I can't say
that it is slower at all.  I have indexed a 210Mb hard disk plus my
network drives (about another 45Mb) and searches still come in under
10-15 seconds.  Magellan 2 is much better in a whole bunch of ways..

Right now I'm running an ethernet connection on a wd8003 card into our
unix machine to read news IN A DOS WINDOW in windows 3.0 and in the
lower right hand corner I have another DOS WINDOW with magellan loaded
and thusI can keep track of both my UNIX mail and run things from dos
just great.

Magellan has to be the best productivity tool that I have bought in the
last three years.
