I not sure if Mike did or not but, I had a full write up on A2Central
over the REV of boards and chips that were best for the acceleration.
I'm pleased to say that my IIc + is a Rev A with NCR ASIC. I replaced the
16Mhz. can oscillator with a 32Mhz. part and it seems to be running fine at
8Mhz. - with no other changes required. :-)
Thanks again for the nice writeup!

My IIc+ has the same ASIC. Sadly, my soldering skills are
nonexistent, so I will have to be content with 4 MHz... But it's good
to know that the upgrade *could* be done...
Yes, you do want to be a bit careful when pulling the can oscillator. The real
challenge is the ground pin, since it has a large plane on the top side of the
board that acts as a marvelous heatsink :-).
Now, if there was a readily-available mass-storage solution for the IIc+ I'd
be all set.
