The Gemini line of accelerators supports both coprocessors and a couple of
large screen displays(E-machines and MegaScreen I think). You can upgrade 
these cards to faster speeds with a new plug in oscilator(sp?). They also
have two sockets so you can buy it with a 68020 and upgrade it to a 68030
later. I just did this in my Mac+, it works in an SE as well. To my knowledge
this is the only card that offers this upgradablity. I'm able to run Virtual
in an old Mac+! It has extended the life of my machine thru system 7.0. If
you are interested in more info I sell these things on the side at discounts
that are hard to beat. I purchased my first one to speed up my BBS, it made my
mac+ run faster than my MacII, I really love it and the support from TSI has
been the best I have ever gotten from a Mac vendor. Tech support at this
company knows what makes the board tick, how it is built and haw far you can 
push it. If you want to know more send me Email. Sorry for the commercial but
I love this thing! It is also the only solution that lets a Mac+ or 512KE 
owner upgrade for 7.0 that I know of.
