Accelerators and sound cards should also work there...I had a ZipGS in slot
4 in my ROM 01.  (Or was it in slot 3 and a SoundMeister was in slot 4?  I
think it'd work either way...come to think of it, I think the accelerator
was in slot 3 because the ribbon cable to the processor socket lined up
better with the card in slot 3.  That'd put the sound card in slot 4.)

(Whenever I get around to bumping the speed back down from 12.5 MHz, it'll
go back in...while the processor is rated for 14 MHz, the rest of the card
doesn't seem to like running anywhere near that speed.  I found an
oscillator in the junk box that'd run it at 7.something MHz, which would be
close to the original 8 MHz.  The larger cache that's on it now should still
keep it somewhat faster than before.)
