external devices of course can't be faster with accelerators, they
can only be accessed faster. for instance my harddisk controller
doesnt have to wait so long for the comp to read the data and
the cards registers can be programmed faster. as for the roms
it might be a bit difficult to manage bank switched roms by copying
them to 'onchip' ram.
