   [Hmm, in my copy of InCider, it is on page 25...]

First, I think the special 'deal' of $513 (U.S.) to pump a 16MHz LC to 25MHz
is still ludicrously expensive.

Second, I am pretty sure that you need to remove the IIe emulator card if
you want to plug in the Transwarp LC, so you end up with a small speed
increase and no Apple II capability.
