    Not to mention the 33Mhz versions we have been shipping in our systems
for a few months now.   In fact (more like, to the best of my knowledge :))
the '030 comes in 16, 20, 25 & 33 Mhz parts that can run as slow as 12.5 Mhz
if you need 'em to.  The 50Mhz part has been seen around here, rumor has it,
but no one is saying when WE'LL be shipping it.  What I want to know is,
if we got 50 Mhz '030's what's the '040 and '050's gonna run at?? WHOOAAA!!
