Something you may want to consider.
Newertech ( http://www.newertech.com ) makes a G3 upgrade for the 6100.
It'll cost somewhere around $500-700 depending on speed--210 or 240 MHz,
I think. There may be some issues about other devices in the PDS slot
if that computer has one-be sure you get the right upgrade card for your
needs, and perhaps check with Newertech's technical support about
compatibility with the Intel board. You can use your existing RAM on
the Mac side.

# Hello,
#
# I have a friend who uses Macs 80% of the time, Windows 20% of the
time. # Currently she has a 6100 with an Intel daughter-board processor
of some # description inside it. She can switch from OS to OS from the
keyboard. # The machine is starting to get a little long in the tooth,
and is only # configured with Win 3.1 - she'd like Win95/98. I can
install more RAM # (in order to get enough for Win9x) on the Intel
processor card, but # that's not really going to solve the speed
problems. # Can anyone suggest an appropriate platform, or hardware
configuration, # that I might suggest to her that'll cover all her
needs? # Many thanks.
# - John
