I guess it's possible, at least GVP is selling faster CPUs and oscillators separately for older GVP '030 boards. >I think it can be done by buying the new GVP serial 2 030 scii 22mhz and then >expand up to 50 it cost only $350.00 for a 50mhz chip I don't care for the MMU >I don't need it for grafics. Nope, new GVP 22MHz and 33MHz boards have surface mounted '030s so it's not possible to replace them easily. As someone has pointed out GVP don't use cripped off 68030's without MMU, they use normal 68030 which have MMU built inside and working. -- Ari Yrj|l{ Internet: ayrjola@hut.fi / JMT 3B 231b BITNET : LK-AY AT FINHUT / Money talks - 02150 ESPOO UUCP : ..!mcsun!santra!ayrjola / but not to me Finland, Europe VoiceNet: +358-(9)0-468 3088 :/
