I just recently installed a Reply DOS PCI card in my 7600/233. The board has
a 133 mhz Intel processer and can take up to 128 megs of memory, plus
several slots for video ram and a cache chip.
I haven't had a chance to really push the card yet (running DOS and Windows
3.1), but I got the whole thing off the ground remarkably quick.
I don't know how this card compares to the Apple card or an Orange Micro
card, but so far it's worked well and some models can be upgraded to 200
mhz. Pricewise, I got this one off Ebay for $30 before shipping, still in
it's shrinkwrap packaging.
