- With all this talk about upgrading Sun-3's, I figured I'd check on Sun-2's.
-
- They run a 68010@10Mhz. I've seen 12Mhz chips in 2/50's, and there are
- jumpers in 2/50's that mention 12/10 Mhz configurations but I've had no
- luck just moving jumpers...perhaps I need to change a crystal? Also,
- how 'bout a 68020 or the like?
-
- Thanks,
-
- Mike

- P.S. For the Apple-II series you can get nifty little things call "Zip" chips
- that are pin-for-pin replacements for existing (65c02, 65816) chips
- that speed them up several times. It would sure seem to me that
- something for the 68000 series would sell by the millions (with all
- them Atari's, Amiga's, and Mac's out there...)
