Well, the votes are against me, so I'll concede (I understand they are
*still* counting in FL!). But I will say that a side-by-side of a 7x00
series Mac accelerated to G3 266 and a beige G3 at 266 disappointed me. The
amount of money the cards cost new just didn't justify the user perceived
performance increase (using Quark, Photoshop and Illustrator).
