Re: Serial speeds in a IIc+? correction

I have been looking over the schematics of the IIc+ and I noticed that the 1.8432 XTAL crystal is setup as external clock source (pin 6 connected and pin 7 floating) vs the crystal being connected to both clock pins on the 6551(s).

Given that ... would it be feasible to replace the crystal with one of a higher frequency to derive faster baud rates? Like 3.6864 or higher?

I also noticed that the ground side of the crystal has a jumper (R35) - any idea why thats there?
