I have the above machine and would like to rev this sucker up to
8mhz (minimally) or 10Mhz (preferably).  I recall these machines
may have had something in the POST to detect clock speed but this
could be defeated once the POST was done.  Is this correct??

I recall Ariel Corp, who once advertised extensively in PC WEAK 
(sp IS correct!) had a circuit board, etc. for this purpose.  I 
would be interested in something like this or perhaps a straight
accelerator card, if it would work.  I have fast RAM chips and
my boards are rated for 12Mhz so that stuff is not a problem.

Any help and pointers to vendors would be appreciated.  Please
respond via email if possible.  Thanks!!!
