- You must have ben using a high frame rate and large pictures.

- However, a Quadra (or several :-) helps tremendously, since
- the 68040 is so much snappier than a 68030+68882 (except for

- Who would want to? The AMD29000 is slower than a Quadra. You
- can buy a 68040 accellerator for a LC that┤s faster than the
