I vote for the Sonnet card.

If you are using Apple System Profiler to tell you about it, you should know that ASP isn't always accurate with 3rd party upgrades. Try using Metronome instead.

Also, FYI, both cards are PDS. The Sonnet card isn't NuBus. The DOS card is on a 90 degree angle adapter and riser. The adapter for the DOS card adapts the 6100's PDS to a 68040 PDS because the DOS card is a 68040 PDS card.

I've always thought it would be an interesting exercise to daisy chain a DOS card off the PDS pass-through on a G3 card, but there's nowhere near enough room in a 6100 to attempt that...

Whatever you choose to keep, I'm sure you'll have lots of fun!

Peace,
Drew
