Does anyone on this list have any experience with a Mac running
something faster than the micro-floppies?

How fast can 68000's be pushed? Can you envision a time when
the Mac 68000 clock rates will be boosted? Are there modifications
to the Mac disk code to make it any faster?

What will a Mac with a Profile feel like speed-wise? What will
the 256K and 512K memory modifications do to the program loading
speed?

How long till we get a personal computer that feels like a single-user
DEC-2060 or or 11/780?
