Just wanted to thank everyone who responded to my request for suggestions
on upgrading my Mac Plus.  Of course, I heard the first rumors about the
new Macs almost immediately after posting my request, and, yes, I will
probably hold off until they're out.  Although I don't know if I can
stand it that long, so I *may* buy either a full-page display *or* an
accelerator in the interim, just to keep me from going crazy.

In case anyone's interested, the most popular suggestions for upgrading
my Plus were Radius for the display and accelerator, by a wide margin.
(Although many people hadn't heard that Radius has discontinued its
full-page display, and I probably shouldn't be telling, 'cause then
you'll all run out and scoop up the few remaining on the shelves and
*I* won't be able to get one!).  The Dove Marathon accelerator was
also popular, and someone who seemed *very* knowledgeable suggested
an inexpensive monitor I'd never heard of--the Nutmeg by Xerox.
La Cie won in the hard drive category, but not overwhelmingly.

Thanks again.  If I didn't respond, forgive me--I got kinda swamped.

Just because it's supposed to be fun doesn't mean it has to be a toy.
