The Chip is expected to ship in production quatities in late '89. My question for you tech types out there is what would happen if I were to yank the 16Mhz '30 out of my mac IIx and drop in one of these screamers. Would it make a diff? Would my mac now rnn at 50 Mhz (or whatever the speed was?) Inquiring minds want to know! Todd vogelei@nmtsun Macintosh: Now you're *WORKING* with power!
