re lciii or used iici which should i get in article apr cheshire oxy edu erik cheshire oxy edu erik adams writes i am looking at a new lc iii and a used iici prices the iici has much greater potential for expansion a la nubus and greater memory capacity how important is this how many nubus cards do you have plan to acquire how much memory do you really need i ve got a ci and mb of ram that s plenty i also have a bit graphics card on the nubus i m a sucker for pretty pictures i think the lciii can have a bootable ramdisk in memory which a ci can not have at least not out of the box the lc iii would be new under warranty newer roms is the iici bit clean and would have sound input i also like the pizza box case the ci is bit clean i solved the sound input problem with a macrecorder but that s gotten to be a fairly expensive solution now that macromind owns macrecorder performance wise i have read that they are almost identical the lc iii being a little slower the actual difference is probably not worth worrying over so which should i get depends on the price you can get the ci for educationally speaking the lciii here at fsu can be had at just under add in roughly for a monitor last i d heard an mb lciii simm went for i think you re in a win win situation no matter what you decide you ll most likely be happy with it james
