Thanks Drew! Sounds like our cards are twins :)  Yeah, at this point,
I'm not going to spend more on the TWgs, I'm happy with 10 MHz, heck,
that's still faster than my old ZipGSX 8/64 that I had nearly 20 years
ago!  There are still enough new peripherals that I don't have yet so
I'd much rather spend money on that (like a certain new sound card :).
