   Slots 1-4. [Slots 1 or 2 requires flipping the cable over.] Slot 3
is somewhat customary unless you have a video card (VOC, SS) requiring
that slot in a Rom 01. The Zip uses the slot for power; it doesn't need
the slot to be switched to "Your card."

   As you asked in your next post, v1.02 is the latest revision. To
pull out the 65816 in it, you'll probably need a special chip puller.
Also, you'd need to replace the oscillator and also the 74HC00 before
going to 14Mhz. See http://www.visi.com/~nathan/a2/faq/zip.html
for info on upgrading.
