some posted around 900kbs, but if the OS was PPC the PCMCIA speed will also go up? correct me if im wrong..


 The max throughput of the PCMCIA port is limited by the A1200 motherboard, using PPC software could help remove some of the bottlenecks in reaching that speed though.

so there is some sort of speed-up..


I wouldn`t say "is", more "maybe", it all depends what you`re offloading to the PPC.
 As for using a "PPC only" OS, I`ve got no idea, I`ve never had a PPC`d Amiga to play with, dunno if the dreaded context switching would hurt PCMCIA access or not, or is it short enough to not worry about?
