I posted a question about this a few weeks back, but I never got any mail
from it, and our newsfeed was messed up for a while.  

Exactly what is the absolute maximum that you can overdrive a 68030?
I know that 10% is not unreasonable, but I was wondering if I add a
heatsink, and a small fan, would I be sure to fry a 33Mhz '030 if I 
ran it at 50Mhz?  I don't care if I risk messing up instructions or anything
software related, I just want to know how much I can pump the thing 
before I'm sure to loose it.
