- johnklos 5y agoI'm tempted to buy something from them, just to see what they still have available...

- userbinator 5y agohttps://www.micromac.com/products/mass_storage_pci_ide.html https://www.micromac.com/products/mass_storage_pci_ide.html Even 20 years ago, $200 for a PCI IDE card (unless there's something very Apple-specific about it) seems extremely overpriced.

- userbinator 5y agoI don't remember exactly, but it was definitely less than $100.

- hi_hello 5y agoThe relative impact of these upgrades is seriously impressive: install a FPU or upgrade your CPU Cache.
