- One of the computers I own is an SE with the Mobius accelerator, and
- can only say good things about it. It does a great job of turning a
- plain jane SE into a fairly usable machine. Since I don't have any
- experience with Mobius monitors, or cards that drive them, I can't
- speak to those issues and yeild to others that have more experience.
-
- I will add one caveat, though. For whatever reason, the accelerator
- interferes with the sound chip on the SE. It produces a certain amount
- of static after installation. This was confirmed to me by the techs
- at Mobius. Otherwise, no software incompatabilities, and any other
- problems. All in all, I'm a satisfied customer.
