Has anyone in netland tried using a higher frequency crystal
in an IBM AT?  For more info see the 19 Feb 85 issue
of "PC Magazine," the opening column each month.
Specific questions for those that know:

1.  What quality of crystal, in terms of dstability and "cut,"
    works best.
2.  What recommended sources for higher quality crystals, or
 are crystals pretty "generic."
3.  What recommended frequency, 18.000 000 MHz EXACTLY?

4.  An unrelated question:  Is there a 40 or 40+ Mb AT
    compatible hard disk on the market yet.  I know
    Mountain makes a 20 Mb that is compatible with
    the AT cavity and access time.  I want more!!!  Mb!!!

Thanks... please post to net, as I'm sure there are many 

interested parties.
