SpeedDoubler8, with one update so far (running 8.1.1 here, started with
8.0) is terrific, and a purely positive experience. You won't believe how
much livelier it makes the G3 feel; the Finder in sys 8.1 still has quite a
bit of legacy 68k code, and SpeedDoubler8 makes a real difference.
CopyAgent, which is an integral part of it, is also excellent in all sorts
of ways. I wouldn't be without them, and they have caused no trouble.
Without them, the machine feels dead.
