Brad,

The "over $1000" boards don't offer any more real horsepower than
coprocessed boards. By this I mean that their vector drawing speeds are in
the same ballpark. They do, however, often include some nice software that
takes advantage of the board's capabilities. Rasterex is a good example of
this.

Last time I checked, our XJS series of controllers (34020 based) were 2x
faster than an 8514/A using our DLP software on both.
