Re: TransWarp & Zip GS upgrades

I called around locally and these are the best prices I can find on SRAMs.
On a particular note, I have to order by the rail, which are 16 chips per.
So as with the other items, I need buyers in groups of five for each speed
to make this work.

Alliance 15ns	=2.50 each	x 3=$ 7.50
Cypress 12ns	=3.56 each	x 3=$10.68

I've done some other reading up, and apparently Zip GS's can be pushed beyond
12.5MHz, however with some work on the end users part. The Zip will need to
have the 74F00 replaced with 74HC00, which is $0.45 from DigiKey. Also the SRAMs
will have to be changed to faster ones, at least 15ns.

Since I don't have a Zip I have no idea what the 74F00 is or whether or not it's
socketed.
