If you check MacConnection, I believe their latest price is $969.  It's simple
to install, just pull out the 020 and push the accelerator into the socket.
The whole thing is about 2"x4".  Then there's an INIT you put in your system
folder and that's it.  You're screaming.  For the money, it's definitely
worth it.  The only incompatability I've seen is the Moire screen saver when
run in color mode (ok in B&W), everything else is great.  Dove has a good
reputation, and their products are first rate (I have a Fastnet III Ethernet
card that I've had no problems with). 

I have no affiliation with the above mentioned products or companies, just
speaking from personal experience.....
