Parik, I read that chat a while back -- the real story is that the ASIC 65816
can directly replace the WDC 65816 in both the transwarp and the Zip but not
the motherboard. This presents no problems to those of us who are planning
to use the chip to upgrade our accelerators (mine will be a Zip GS).

A socket, BTW, is what your TWGS's 65816 is sitting in...

(While I have your attention, thanks for BGSound... I love it!)
