   Oh, that's no problem.  Just drop one of these puppies into a Zip GS,
put in a 100MHz crystal (wow!), and put in at least 32k of 40ns SRAM 
(40 should do it, no? Maybe not, I suppose it depends on the design).
  
   Add into the brew a 1Meg/Sec DMA SCSI (Apple or RAMfast, take your pick),
and voluminous quantities of RAM, and all the power users have their
II of the gods.  Instead of II-in-a-mac, it's II-eats-a-Mac, which is one
of my favorite GS PD disk names.
