Re: TransWarp GS - How can I get it faster than 8 MHz

["Mark Cummings" <NOTfigjams@primus.com.au>]

Wayne,

This is where the money went...
$58AU for 2x 14MHz CPUs that never showed up from Florida.
$38AU for a 14MHz CPU that did show up from Hawaii.
$89AU for a 32Kcache board (without cache) from Germany.
$27AU for ver 1.8 EPROM from Germany.
$43AU for 3 Clock Oscillators from Texas.
$5AU for a replacement 40pin IDC connector.
$0AU for 3 15ns cache chips from an old 486 motherboard. Although I did buy
that motherboard too, so it should be counted in the cost.
--------
$260AU total so far, give or take a few dollars. OK it was a bit less than
$300AU but that was just a guess at the time.
Don't forget as I'm in Australia I have to pay through the nose for money
orders and postage for every single part. And I havn't even got to the Power
Supply or replacement CPU cable yet.
