Score one on that. The delta from 25MHz to 33MHz just wasn't enough to warrant  
a different machine, but a jump to 40MHz (I'd prefer 50MHz, but net notes  
indicate that even the 40MHz '040 isn't that stable yet) might. On the other  
hand, I'd just as soon wait and upgrade to an NRW if/when they come out. Or  
maybe even a (never thought I'd ever say this) 66MHz 80486. ..bruce..
