i can't believe you're back, and ranting lies, once again.  
first of all, you're comparing apples and oranges when talking about
adding hardware to the mac.  the Houdini card runs dos/win with NO
emulation at 486DX2 66mhz speed.  it has one simm slot as well that is
upgradable to 16 mb ram.  on top of the 16mb you can alocate mac ram,
including virtual memory.
and, for a mere $250 you can emulate dos/win on a mac.  it's called
softwindows and it's been out for two years.  i can't believe you've never
heard of it. your post is meaningless.
