  20. However, the ET4TURBO.ZIP drivers that I recently uploaded to
  21. ftp.cica.indiana.edu are NOT the same as the 4/16 drivers.  I ran 
  22. PC Labs WINBENCH with the turbo drivers, and the turbo drivers
  23. ran SUBSTANTIALLY faster on nearly all test.  Substantially=2 to 10
  24. times faster!  (faster than the 4/16 drivers, which I had previously
  25. tested). 
  26.  
  27. I uploaded the turbo drivers for Andy Lindeman
  28. (lindemaj@rosevc.rose-hulman.edu) who was going to do a comprehensive
  29. comparisson of the various versions of ET4000 drivers.  Any news,
  30. Andy?
