I saw THIS site:

http://www.everymac.com/upgrade_cards/totalimpact/totalpower_g3/totalpower_g
3_366.html

What it is is a "conditional" card made to kick in when the applcation is
written to address the CPUs.

Super processing power on-demand, IF the particular application has the code
to address the card. OTherwise, it probably just sits there not adding any
speed to the machine at all.
