I put a 33mhz 68040 in my Mac IIci, and it doesn't seem to be making any 
difference! The program in which I was hoping to see improvement is Adobe 
Illustrator, but it's still as slow as ever. (Yes, I have Power Central 
turned on...) The new card does not have a math coprocessor. Could this 
be the problem? I hope someone can help, or I just wasted a lot of money.
