But I've heard so many horror stories about DF0: not working... after installing the hack... Maybe I'll go back to my dealer and talk to him a bit more... and maybe get the 14Mhz 68000... Its just he scares me sometimes with this little line he gives me from some instructions one company gave on installing their chips: Be careful to install the chip correctly, dont break the glass, or put it in backwards, cause you will let the "blue smoke" out, and it wont work anymore... -- Ernest J.
