I had some difficulty with installing an ST238 and RRL controller in a
Computerland BC88.  The machine would frequently come up with parity errors
while running at 8MHz.  I had to slow the system to 4.77MHz so that everyone
would play nicely together.  Other than this problem, everyone was quite
happy with the new disk.
