I think that Kyle is meaning that just like overclocking a processor, it
becomes less tolerant of the extremes of its environment (Power, temp, etc.)
as the speed goes up. Personally, my 7600 would run a 58.5 MHz bus with it's
G3 400 at 476. :-) Rock solid stable too, whether it's in OS 9, X, or Linux.

I've always run my 7300 at 50MHz, both with the 400MHz and 500MHz cards
that have been in this system. I'm not sure what Kyle is referring to.
