Here's a question for you hardware guru's(Dave H?) out there.

I have an A1000 with a rejuvenator, flicker fixer, and an Expansion
Technologies Zorro II expansion box, which has a Trumpcard Pro and
Quantom HD in it.

I have an opportunity to get a 2630 Commodore 68030 acclerator for 
_cheap_!   The only problem is I don't have a CPU slot!

But I DO have a fully compliant Zorro II slot.

Somewhere I heard about someone hacking a 2630 onto their expansion
port, which is essentially a different form of the Zorro slot, right?

Is it possible to do the same thing in a Zorro slot?

What would be involved in doing so?

Hardware Guru's, here's your chance to show your stuff!

Endlessly curious...

-Tom
