I am going on a trip this summer and I want to get a duo to take with me. I wanted to know if either the 270c or 280c could play, Marathon, Marathon 2 Durendal, and Marathon Infinity. If it can play any of these it would be cool, but it would be even cooler if it could play all of them.68k Macintosh Liberation Army

Get the 280c. The 270 CAN play Marathon, but it will be the slowest thing ever. The 280c, however, can play it quite nicely.  -------------------------- Give your dreams a chance.™ - Apple in the mid '90s Warrior maclover5

Why would the 270c not be able to play it as well? I was interested in buying, gdogkzo's duo 270c. But you think I should go with the 280c? Is there a great big amount of difference between the 68030 with the 68888 fpu and the 68LC040?68k Macintosh Liberation Army

Yes there is. Marathon runs much, much, much smoother on the 280c. Trust me, I have run it on many '030s and '040s, and it always runs better on the '040s.-------------------------- Give your dreams a chance.™ - Apple in the mid '90s Warrior maclover5
