I imagined that someone in the UK had tooled up for a production run of accelerators. I'd go for anything better than this (I have the 25MHz version - it only accepts a solitary 8MB SIMM), and pay reasonable money for it.


Yeah we could use a run of accelerators with sockets that take either '040s or '060s have a couple of SIMM slots, or even a SODIMM slot, and have a mini-PCI socket for a network or wireless card.


but you can do the networking with a PCMCIA card !
better to use the miniPCI for USB or graphics.


Can you just swap the crystal, and give yourself a 33MHz version?

Also, no you can't (reliably) use the PCMCIA unless you dump the 8MB simm and use 4MB instead, due to conflicts in the address range.

Good to post in the same thread as you again, Agafaster.
