If I have a Mac II plain w/o a PMMU chip would I be better off spending the ~$150 for the PMMU chip or the ~$230 for MacSprint II? From what I understand MacSp is basically a 32k cache for the 68020 alone and helps screen redraws and some math stuff. This computer has a 19" Color monitor and works A LOT in pagemaker and freehand etc so screen redraws take a while. But I hear that even with the 5meg I have I may need PMMU to use sys7.0 if it ever shows up as promised.... Any thoughts or experience with either product singly or comparatively? (or even other hardware in the price range..) = Mac II, 5 meg, 19" Radius 8 bit, 100meg, 1 800K = I'm not against doing the hardware stuff my self I'm an old pop it open Apple II hack... Any word would be appreciatted... Thanks! -Tod Kuykendall pa1743%sdcc13@ucsd.edu
