Once they get it back from the fabricators, you can just pop it in. Mach will split up processes between the two CPUS assuming you have two versions of your code and ZOOM. Of course that's completely bogus as theorys go. Weird Socket Theory #97: That's the socket for a Weitek Postscipt chip. Weird Socket Theory #98: That's the socket for a RISC chipe, the 030 is only used to drive the screen. Weirdest Socket Theory: That's where the cable that connects between you brain and the Box plugs in.
