Fred, I would love to experiment with these to see if I can get my animation 
rate up to 60Hz (currently 30Hz with some buffering) on my 5150.  Please email 
me off-list to discuss terms.  I have SCSI disk so that's an option; I would 
also love to experiment with EMS (I wrote EMS routines many moons ago so I know 
how the boards work).
