Well, this is true. 6.x just wallops everything else for speed -- my Mac Plus still runs it and it screams, even for a plain jane Plus. But 7.1 is still wonderful. The IIsi and the IIcis and the Fusion PC all adore it. My SE/30 still runs 6.x but for other reasons; AppleShare v2, which I need to netboot GS/OS for the IIgs farm, doesn't like 7.x much. -- ----------------------------- personal page: http://www.armory.com/~spectre/ -- Cameron Kaiser, Point Loma Nazarene University * [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Why was I born with such contemporaries? -- Oscar Wilde -------------------- -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
